In this episode of Running to the Castle I’m explaining what happens in the 2 week process while you’re taking a break from running.

Taking 2 weeks off from running is one of the most common recommendations from healthcare providers like doctors and physical therapists because pain can go away on its own without treatment or intervention in 10-14 days after a new injury.

But, for the majority of running injuries it takes 2 weeks for the pain to go away but it takes at least another 4 weeks for the tendon to heal.

You’ll learn why this doesn’t work for runners because the pain and inflammation will come back in full force and what to do instead.

  Hi, I'm Dr. Ali
  I've been running for 15+ years and been in the rehab space since 2012 when I earned my Doctor of Physical Therapy Degree. I get injury prone runDisney runners across the finish line without feeling broken.
