Author and yoga
instructor Sage Rountree makes it easy to find the perfect gift for all your
gal pal runner friends with her book, The Athlete’s Pocket Guide to Yoga:
50 Routines for Flexibility, Balance, and Focus. After all, who among us
wouldn’t benefit from the balance and flexibility that result from a disciplined
yoga practice – yet how many of us honestly have the time to incorporate
regular yoga classes into our training routines?
Rountree’s book
offers easy to follow instructions in a spiral bound format, directed
specifically at runners, cyclists and triathletes. As an active multi-sport
athlete herself, Rountree understands the unique ways in which a runner’s body
becomes overly tight and inflexible – and just what to do to address those
challenges. The well-written and clearly-illustrated book is easy to tote to
your workout room or to pack in a travel bag for enhanced fitness on-the-go.
