Never let your recovering body compete with your racing body
About this episode
The biggest enemy in the injured runner’s battle is your desire to run as fast or faster than you were right before you got injured.
This morning I was on a call with a recovering elite Masters athlete and she has been doing great, but she seems to be drifting into dangerous territory!
During our call, I got worried about the way she was thinking about her upcoming workouts. But was thinking was very common, and very dangerous. And that is the reason I decided to record this episode.
Today on the Doc On The Run podcast, we're talking about how you should never let your recovering body compete with your racing body.
