What would be a particularly good stretching exercise to do before going on a run?

Running relies heavily on the calf muscles, which help push your body forward with each stride. Stretching the calves is therefore particularly relevant before a run; shoulder bends and chest-and-arm stretches focus on upper-body muscles, while a torso stretch is less directly related. The best choice is the calf stretch.
