How Runners Can Reset Their Injuries (Properly)

If you have ever dealt with a running injury, you likely followed this timeline:


  1. Ignore it for a bit to see if it goes away
  2. Reduce your run distance to take it easy
  3. Start spacing runs out for more recovery
  4. Take a week or two off to see if that fixes it

What usually happens in this circumstance?
