Running is a beautiful, freeing sport—but let’s be real, it can also leave us with tight hamstrings, stiff hips, sore knees, and more....

It’s officially the peak of summer, and unless you’ve been hiding in an air-conditioned environment or you're somewhere enjoying winter in the Southern Hemisphere, you’ve probably noticed—it’s hot. So what’s a mental health runner to do? Keep running—but do it smarter.
