Troubleshooting for mid-race soreness
On this episode, Brodie entertains the scenario of a runner experiencing unpredicted mid-race soreness and highlights some troubleshooting technique changes a runner can do to get through the remainder of a race. There are changes you can make in your speed, cadence and step width during different terrain in order to shift load on your body. Therefore, if soreness arises in a certain area, it’s good to have insight into how we can consciously shift load away from these areas. Brodie covers soreness of the foot, plantar fascia, heel, shin, calf, achilles, knee, hamstring, ITB, lateral hip and glute area and the troubleshooting you can do for each.
