Tuning out running injury tuning in for recovery

Overtraining injuries only happen when you ignore a problem. No runner wants to be injured. Most runners who call me for web-cam visits have been tuning out the signs of impending injury...long before they actually got injured. You get an overtraining injury because you did feel something, but you ignored it. Don't forget...you could not become an accomplished runner if you were not capable of tuning out discomfort and putting in the work to become a strong runner. But that works against you when you get injured. Tuning out injury, tuning in for recovery and that's what we're talking about today on the Doc on the Run podcast.
