Never Enough of a Good Thing
Stretching. It's something that every runner must do. One of the many running tips that runners ignore is stretching after warming up. Most runners choose to stretch before they go out for a run, which is incorrect.
Stretching before warming up your muscles causes them to strain and tear, which does the opposite of what stretching intends, and can lead to injury. Runners should warm up their muscles by running for 10 to 15 minutes before stretching there muscles prior to a run.
