While Runna plans are running-first, we know that cross-training is one of the most effective things you can do to support your running. That's why Runna offers four types of additional non-running workouts: Yoga, Pilates, Stretch & Stability and Strength.
🧘 This article covers Yoga, Pilates and Stretch & Stability. For Strength training, see Adding Strength Training to Your Runna Plan.
