Training Tips:

One of the most important parts of training is stretching. Stretching your leg muscles after a run will help you retain flexibility and reduce the lactic acid build-up. The purpose of stretching after your run is to keep muscles supple, increase the range of motion of joints, increase the blood flow to muscles and prevent injuries.
