Hi everyone! I'm new on here. I did my very first run yesterday (it was tough! I am very unfit) and I am so stiff today! Any top tips for stiffness? Do I just tough it out?

Stretching immediately after every run, while muscles are still warm and supple, pulls out contractions, avoiding carrying tensions into the next run and also improves recovery by improving blood flow.
Enjoy your journey.
Thanks I'll get reading! (And stretching!)
