Use yoga every day. This week we’re going long! By long we mean 20–34 minutes of daily yoga. You’ve felt what a difference just 5–10 minutes of yoga makes, and you’ll be amazed by how much you can do by extending that, while still spending less than half the time you’d have to spend in a studio class.

Use yoga every day. On paper, this week should be the *easiest* week. You only need 5 minutes (one day asks for 10). You can do it anywhere. You don’t need any props. You can even lay down... But for many athletes, using meditation daily could be the most challenging week yet.

“Calm and relaxed, I’ll run fast.” — Des Linden
Calm and relaxed — that’s how to toe the line on race day. Executing this requires practice. That’s right, practice being calm and relaxed. All the time. When you show up to your workout day, during a bad mile of a tempo, on a gruelling long run... Calm and relaxed. It takes practice to replace doubt and anxiety with calm confidence, but the reward is huge — and extends far beyond running.

Hamstrings often become tight, dry, and stuck together due to weak glutes (forcing these supporting muscles to compensate and do more work than they’re engineered for) and honestly, because we sit. A lot.
That combined with the fact that common stretching tactics like being hyper focused on touching the ground with straight legs, or throwing your leg up and yanking on those tissues with a strap are more likely to injure your hamstrings than increase the flexibility and fluidity needed for optimal function — and running.
Let’s unstiffen those hammies! And guess what? It doesn't matter if you EVER touch your toes.
