Is warming up essential for running?

Answered by a doctor

I heard that proper warming up is essential for running. Is it true? It seems to me like a waste of time. When you want to run, you go and run. When you are done, you are done. Time is precious and I do not want to waste it on something unnecessary. What is this warming up craze all about?
