YOGA FOR RUNNERS 

If you’re running the Dubai Women’s Run this weekend, or include running as part of your regular fitness programme, why not try combining a little yoga with your workout?

Great for building a strong and healthy body, yoga helps loosen and lengthen your muscles, increases your flexibility and improves stability ready for your run.

This yoga sequence by  global yoga expert Tara Stiles will help you cross the finish line with ease.

Pose 1.   Downward Dog: Begin in the downward dog, spreading your fingers wide, tucking your toes, and lifting your hips back. Once comfortable and stable, lift yourself up onto tip toes, feeling a stretch in your heels. Softening your heels, return to the floor and repeat this movement twice.

Pose 2. Low Lunge: Plunge your left leg behind you bending it slightly at the knee, widening your hips to feel the stretch. When you’re ready, bring your right leg down and forward sinking your hips into a low lunge.

Pose 3. Runner’s Stretch: From low lunge, with your right foot forward, tuck your toes of your left foot under and lower your back knee to the ground. Gently sit yours hips back on your heel. Keep your right leg straight in front of you. Bring yourself back into low lunge and repeat on the other side.
