Sarah and Dimity welcome Coach Liz Waterstraaat and Emily Opacich, a coming-back-from-a-stress-fracture mother runner, to explore the ins and outs of coming back to running after an injury or pregnancy. In this empathetic, informative conversation, learn: -why walk breaks during a run are “great release valves”; -three recommendations for exceptionally injury-prone runners; -how nutrition or an underlying medical condition can lead to injury; -how to find your motivation when you resume running (it’ll happen!); and -why Emily walked her first 5K in jeans! Here’s the new Return to Running program Coach Liz helped design, and the AMR/TLAM Club YouTube channel, where you can find a host of strength-training exercises.
