Don't worry, no rush I won't be going again until Monday & have a busy weekend so might not get chance to do much. Appreciate the help & advice you've given me today though

I thought that "mobility" might be your posh talk for stretching Will

Dynamic always come before a race or a really long run for me. I don't bother on normal runs as I take it easy to start off and warm up. I never do static before running, only afterwards (unless a kitten decides to get run over outside, and then I don't stretch at all and end up with achy legs, lol), but I know it's a personal thing and people all have their own preference.

Kitten - I have a really good book about beginning running. It has some dynamic (moving) stretches for before a run with statics for afterwards. It'll be relevant to you still as there are arm/back stretches in there. If you like I can scan and send over?

Yoga stretches are also very good for you. I've started incorporating a few into my routine (google swan pose, down dog & cow faced pose)

Agreed entirely with regards to dynamic before and static afterwards. From a kinesiology and body mechanics point of view it is absolutely the best way to prepare your body and recover from exercises.

For a silly example just look at other predators like big cats.

Kate, this is boxing circuit training which includes running too. It's my legs (hamstrings & quads) that are the problem. That's be great if you could x
