Hi

Hello! How can I help you today?
assistant
I'm a beginner runner and I'm looking for advice on how to recover after a run.
user
Recovery is important for runners. Make sure to stretch after your run, drink plenty of water, and get enough rest. You can also try foam rolling or taking a cold bath to help with muscle soreness.
assistant
That sounds helpful. How often should I run as a beginner?
user
As a beginner, it's best to start with 2-3 times a week and gradually increase your frequency as your body adapts. It's also important to listen to your body and take rest days when you need them.
assistant
Okay, got it. What are some good stretches for runners?
user
Some good stretches for runners include hamstring, quadriceps, and calf stretches. You can also stretch your hip flexors and lower back to help prevent injuries.
