Do this before every run to improve run and prevent running injuries. This running warm up uses a series of dynamic stretches to prepare your body for the run ahead. If you use this type of pre run warm up before you run, you will find it makes running that little bit easier and helps you to avoid common running injuries.
I decided to share this follow-along running warm up because of the huge success of my previous running warm up video, which is the first of the videos linked below... check it out!

ABOUT ME: I'm James Dunne, a runner, sports rehabilitation therapist (similar to physical therapist) and coach based in the UK (Norwich and London).
Since 2007 I've been working with athletes focusing specifically on helping distance runners and triathletes overcome injury and improve performance through developing their individual running technique.
Running biomechanics and physical therapy are real passions of mine. I love to help runners run strong and stay injury free.
