What Yoga Can Do for Runners

This episode is a must-listen if you do—or are considering doing—Sun Salutations, Warrior Pose, and the like. Guest Sage Rountree, Ph.D., yoga instructor and author of The Athlete’s Guide to Yoga, talks with hosts Sarah Bowen Shea and Britany Williams, about: -hating her first experiences with yoga (!); -the value of letting go of “doing-and-action” mode; -how the athletic mindset tempers runners’ approach to yoga;-how your practice should change during a training cycle; and,-four “spicy and sweet poses” to do daily. Before Sage joins around 14:26, each host shares about her recent photo/video shoot. At the end of the episode on Miles of Books, Coach Liz talks up two books about communication.
