We dig into why runners keep getting trapped in the pain, rest, repeat loop and how small “not quite an injury” warning signs turn into bigger setbacks. We also hear how Dr Michael Betler moves from surgery into evidence-led sports recovery so we can stay healthy and keep running long term.

• why ignoring a niggle often creates compensation and chronic issues
• Dr Bettler’s background in sport, engineering, osteopathy and surgery
• the shift from late-stage fixes to prevention, lifestyle medicine and healthspan
• building a clinic that sits between primary care and surgery for pain and performance
• evidence based thinking, avoiding gimmicks and using research well
• runner basics that matter, shoes, mileage, insoles and gait analysis
• what realignment aims to do, restoring symmetry and reducing overload
• why strength training supports bones, tendons and long-term running
• recovery as the builder, sleep, rest and adaptation after training stress
