As promised, this begins a series of articles to help ease the anxiety and accelerate the rehabilitation of some of the most common injuries that besets endurance athletes. It has been my experience that the stress caused by not knowing “How” is much more impactful and detrimental to your overall raining than the “What.”
How long will it be before I can get back to running? How much speed will I lose? How will I ever make up the workouts that I will miss? How will my training partner deal with me not being around? How will I ever be able to do nothing and feel good about it?
With injuries, the how’s definitely have it. Sometimes, knowing the what, however, is a good place to begin. Read the article below and most importantly, if you have personal experience with any of these maladies, please share them by posting a comment to this blog.
