If you PR with an injury, the injury happened for you and not to you

Most runners understandably feel like a victim of an over-training injury. They say something like, "Well, I was feeling strong, I was feeling ready for my race, I was really feeling great, and then this happened to me. I got a stress fracture, I got Achilles tendonitis, I got peroneal tendonitis, got plantar fasciitis, something happened to me and now I feel like I've lost all my fitness and I can't run my race."  Well, most of the time we just reflexively think that things happen to us, but sometimes things really do happen for us.  What do I mean by that? Well, sometimes the bad thing actually has a silver lining that you can't even see. Today on the Doc On The Run Podcast, we're talking about how if you PR with an injury, the injury happened for you and not to you.
