Daily Fit Tip: Before a run, treat your feet
Running is many things: It's energizing, rejuvenating and oh-so-good for both your soul and body. But it's also hard on your legs, particularly your feet, calves and knees. If you like running and want to keep doing it for a few more years, treat your gams well by stretching, practicing proper form, drinking lots of water and treating yourself to a massage. You don't need to hit up a massage therapist though -- you can give yourself a runner's massage by rubbing down your feet and calves, as recommended on Fitsugar. Or enlist your significant other (I definitely plan on doing this). Yes, there is a reason behind this -- a massage can bring blood to the area, which will help your muscles warm up and recover.
