Anxiety robs injured runners of action

One of the worst things when you're an injured runner is to stop taking action. Think about what would happen if you did this with a marathon. If you were to sign up for a race and you didn't do anything to actually gain fitness in preparation for that event, would you expecto to do well? It blows me away when I see injured runners who have spent years in disciplined training, yet then when they get injured, they just sit in a puddle of inaction that keeps them stagnant and prevents them getting back to running. Anxiety robs injured runners of action, and that's what we're talking about today on the Doc On The Run podcast.
