URG Strikes a "PIGEON POSE"?!

Click on Image for Larger View!!

Lately it seems that yoga poses are popping up everywhere. Fitness instructors are slipping yoga into their core and strength classes and massage and physio-therapists are sending clients home with yoga poses to help stretch and rehabilitate muscles. URG is holding a "pigeon pose" which stretches the hip and glute muscles to name a few.

There is still alot of controversy concerning the benefits of yoga and just how stretched and limber a runner should be. Personally I use yoga poses for core strength and to keep my left and right side balanced flexibility wise.

Just a QUICK list of some Ultra Runners who practice YOGA-
OK, I am sure there are MANY more but that is all I could find for now.
Is there anyone else out there who starts their day with a few good Sun Salutations?
