Hello all. Was wondering if the more knowledgeable in the community could weigh in on stretching and BF'ing.
I have heard you aren't supposed to stretch before running so I wasn't too sure. Today I had a long stretch of my IT band before a run (which went great) and in highschool in the late 80's we sure stretched a lot.
I ran with rswhitaker (he took the shot of me BF in front of NIKE) who has 6 years running BF under his belt and he said that he never stretches and has never been injured. He is a strong runner so I was all ears but I'd be interested in what others with experience have to say about stretching before BF'ing.
