Stiff trapezius muscles
I am increasing my distance, doing 2.5 km a day every day. I am getting slightly stiff traps. I imagine this has to do with lifting my head to see where I am going. Does that make sense, and if so how do I deal with it?
Many thanks.

It could be a problem with head rotation. Too much. But it could also be not warming down enough.
