The slippery slope of running injury recovery

A running injury is always bad. No runner is ever happy to have a stress fracture or to have plantar fasciitis or Achilles tendonitis...or something worse. If you get an overtraining injury and you're trying to recover, but you're not getting better fast, you need to stop and evaluate.  The biggest problem I see with most injured runners is that they half do the recovery. You stop running. You stop working out. All you do is sit around.  You are waiting and waiting and waiting to heal. But all of that waiting puts injured runners in a dangerous place. Today on the Doc On The Run podcast we're talking about the slippery slope of running injury recovery.
