After a long distance run it is important to warm down properly, much like you would warm up before a race. Stretching the muscles is an essential part of warming down otherwise your legs will ache for a while after the run! If you know how to warm up before a race it is pretty much the same to warm down, making sure that all parts of your body are fully stretched. Breathing correctly can also help the circulation in your body and all these elements will contribute to you feeling replenished and ready to run again in no time!
