In this episode of The Physio Coach Podcast, host Charlie Goodchild is joined by Adrian D’Costa, physiotherapist and founder of The Running Room in London.

Adrian shares his journey from early-career physio to building one of the UK’s leading running rehabilitation clinics, alongside the lessons he’s learned from working with runners, mentoring clinicians, and navigating clinic ownership.

This conversation goes beyond protocols and explores how great physios actually think.

You’ll hear about:

• How to work effectively with runners (even if you’re not a runner yourself)
• Why many running rehabs fail and how underloading holds patients back
• Load management vs technique in injury and performance
• The role of strength & conditioning in MSK physio
• Building clinical reasoning instead of relying on templates
• The realities of opening and growing a physio clinic
• Advice for early-career physiotherapists

This episode is ideal for physiotherapists, rehab professionals, coaches, and runners who want to better understand injury, performance, and modern healthcare.
