Does stress response equal RIP To VO2 Max?

Today's episode comes from a question on the Doc On The Run YouTube channel regarding the video entitled “Proof you do not have to stop running with a metatarsal stress response.”  Brian was clearly frustrated. He commented: “I wish… I have a big swollen reason under the second metatarsal. It tingles a bit while running. Slight burning. I have to alter my landing to not irritate it. I'm finished. Rest in peace to my running VO2 max. I got to focus on cycling.” Does a stress response equal "rest in peace" to my VO2 max?  Well, that is a good question and that is what we're talking about today on the Doc On The Run Podcast.
