We get running. As runners, physical therapists specializing in running medicine, and educators we know that there is more to running than meets the eye. We know and believe that an athlete's success is so much more than their body or their sport. Looking at and caring for the running athlete through a wider lens allows them to be well within and beyond their sport. We want to help widen the lens, shed some light and empower runners and healthcare providers through story telling and expert interviews.

Our podcast will drop twice a month, on Wednesdays.
