Is resting overrated for runners?

Well, the short answer is yes and no but I want you to think about something.

If it's true in training, then it must be true in over training injury recovery and whenever I say this, truthfully like most doctors if I'm speaking at a conference, they kind of cross their arms and glare at me and a lot of runners scratch their heads when I say that.

But it is true and I want you to really think about this. If it is true in your training, then it should be true in your over training injury recovery and this what we're talking about today on the Doc On The Run podcast.
