[Download] Return to Running after Injury Program
For the first time in my 13 year adult onset running journey, I didn’t run for 6 weeks!
The longest time I ever went without running was 10 days after the cape cod marathon last year to allow for full recovery.
The longest time I ever needed to recover from an injury without running was 3 days!
No, I didn’t get lazy or burnt out from running but I suffered my first running injury that forced me to shut down running completely for 42 days!
Let’s be honest… Not running and doing the thing you love just sucks!
