I was recently clicking around on YouTube when I came across a video with tips for new runners. Seeing that this video had millions of views, I was curious what this woman had to say.

I cringed while watching the video.

Not because her tips weren’t good. In fact, they were spot on.

But because there were a few things she didn’t do while preparing for her runs that would’ve made her life a whole lot easier.

Running can be a real party pooper some days, am I right?

When you’ve selected running as your go-to workout, there will inevitably be days when it sounds like zero fun. The monotony of pavement pounding and unrelenting boredom…mix that with labored breathing and pain and I can’t fault you for not enjoying it. The thought of a run is enough to make most people crawl further under their bed covers.

Even if you enjoy running for the physical and mental benefits, you’ve definitely had days when running sounded like the last activity you wanted to do.

Today seems like a good day to stretch, relax, and quiet your mind – wouldn’t you say?

There’s simply no better way to do that than with yoga.

Since my Top YouTube Channels for Health and Wellness post continues to be one of my most popular, I figured it was about time to make another YouYube channel round-up – this time yoga edition!
