Beginning runners should take certain steps to prevent injury. Even minor running injuries can keep you off your feet for several days and can mess up your routine.
One of the best ways prevent injury is to stretch thoroughly before running. The last thing you want to do is pull a muscle. I practice yoga, which stretches my muscles more than most other stretching routines. Even so, I always take the time to stretch my calf muscles and hamstrings before a run.
