Description

Welcome to the Tread Lightly Podcast with Amanda Brooks of Run to the Finish and Laura Norris, M.S. of Laura Norris Running! 
Laura and Amanda bring over 20 years of coaching experience and expertise shared in thousands of articles, with the goal of helping you train smarter, not harder.
Episode four tackles the question: should runners stretch? Stretching is a complicated topic: stretching before vs after runs, static vs dynamic stretching, and stretching in general vs stretching directed by a physical therapist. We dive into these questions and more to deliver a nuanced and evidence-based guide to stretching for runners.
