Method for modifying cadence after injury
from Doc On The Run Podcast · host Dr. Christopher Segler
I was recently on a follow-up call with a runner who is recovering from a calcaneal stress fracture. She was doing really well, the stress fracture was healing, and her heel pain had completely resolved. So it was time to start ramping up her running. Since she wanted strategies to decrease stress on the stress fracture, we talked about increasing her running cadence. She asked me specifically about the difference between pace and cadence, as she wanted to be absolutely clear on what they were. What is a method you can use to alter your cadence when you have been recovering from a running injury? Well, that is what we're talking about today on the Doc On The Run Podcast.
