[Download] Return to Running after Injury Program

For the first time in my 13 year adult onset running journey, I didn't run for 6 weeks!

The longest time I ever went without running was 10 days after the cape cod marathon last year to allow for full recovery.

The longest time I ever needed to recover from an injury without running was 3 days!

No, I didn't get lazy or burnt out from running but I suffered my first running injury that forced me to shut down running completely for 42 days!

Let's be honest… Not running and doing the thing you love just sucks!

However, with the right mindset, injury recovery, and return to running strategy you can conquer your injury and not go stir crazy without running!

In this episode, I wanted to share with you…

- Why I didn't run for 6 weeks

- My foot injury diagnosis and recovery process

- Returning to running after injury lessons
