Buckle Up: An Ultrarunning Conversation

Dr. Tonya Olson: The Blister Whisperer


Listen Later

In this episode, we're joined by Dr. Tonya Olson, a physical therapist and expert on ultra running foot care. She dives deep into why proactive foot health is a non-negotiable for ultra runners, not just a post-race afterthought.


Dr. Olson shares crucial insights on preventative care, common foot issues, and the absolute necessity of a dedicated foot care kit. She explains how a little knowledge about your feet and the right products can make or break a race. We also tackle the surprising lack of education around foot care in the ultra running community and how taking a curious, proactive approach can lead to better performance and fewer injuries.

Whether you're training for your first 50K or a seasoned veteran, this episode is a comprehensive guide to keeping your most important tools—your feet—in top shape.
