Lots of stretching

Yesterday I didn't have much time at the gym, because I had to go to Zurich. Only about 40 minutes. I proceeded to do 15 minutes in the elliptical trainer, not more than a warm up. Then almost 20 minutes stretching, also doing some new strecthes which I found at Cool Running. Some of them are pretty good. Numer 2, for instance, was pretty good to show me that the muscle under my calf, whatever its name is, is poorly stretched. No surprises it would very frequently be sore after a run. Number 8 is also much better than the similar I used to do, where I kept one leg straight.

After the long stretching session, I did some exercises to strenghten the inner part of the quads and the gluteus muscles. Go away, runner's knee and ITBS. Away!
