Colleen Quigley, one of the most dominant steeplechasers in American history, has represented the US at the World Championships and Olympics, won the 2019 indoor mile national championships, and she's hungrier than ever to get back to training and top form.

In this episode, we're discussing her months long foot injury and what she's doing to properly diagnose it, treat it, and get back to top form. Colleen is tough as nails, honest, vulnerable, and so positive about her comeback. I know that will rub off on you, too.

You can hear her top injury prevention tips (along with 4 other world-class runners) in Episode 160 here.
