Runners do not recover faster by guesswork

I was just talking to a runner in one of the sessions where people call in who are taking the One Run Away challenge. In that challenge course, I'm helping you try to figure out what is the step that you're not taking that is holding you back from recovering as quickly as possible. So this is the thing that goes on and every few days I do calls and let people ask questions directly to me over webcam. I got an interesting question and this was about how to actually do something that Dr. Schreider talked about during the recent runners rapid recovery summit. Now he works with professional soccer players and he was talking about how he gets athletes back on track after they have an Achilles tendon rupture and have to have surgery. Now these are professional athletes. So the owner of the team is not going to do things by guesswork. They want to make sure that these athletes are on track as quickly as possible. Today on the Doc On The Run Podcast we're talking about how runners do not recover faster by guesswork.
