What if everything we’ve been conditioned to think about pain and injury is wrong? What if we could heal ourselves on our own faster and more effectively without ever having to stop running?

Let’s find out.

Today I’m sharing my conversation on Pain and Performance with co-authors Matt Fitzgerald and Ryan Whited about their book of the same name.

We’ll explore:

Ryan Whited is the founder of Paragon Athletics in Flagstaff, AZ and is a specialist in pain science and physiology. Matt Fitzgerald is an acclaimed endurance sports author, coach and nutritionist, whom I’ve interviewed three times, because his work is so compelling and important to what we do as runners.

Their book is truly fascinating and I highly recommend that you read it or at least listen to this conversation before you get injured.
