Don't hurt yourself. Oh, speaking of hurt, that's what we're talking about today. We're talking about

preventing injuries by resting and being smart about your recovery. Hey everybody. Welcome to

episode 47 of the Run, Selfie Repeat podcast where we talk about life with the side of running.

Although, disclaimer, we're not really going to talk about

life. Today is all about running. My name is Kelly Roberts and I'm so excited about this episode

because I wanted to talk about rest and recovery because as I've been trying to recover from

the London Marathon, I have been seriously fighting the urge to get

back into it too soon because I open Straver, I look on Instagram, and everyone's doing everything,

and it's hard not to feel, not peer pressure, but feel the urge to get back at it because

you don't feel like you're doing enough. I don't think we rest

enough. I think these campaigns like no days off or are we running today, they are really bad

for endurance athletes because we don't realize it because we think that the more we do,

the better off will be.

But rest is a very, very, very important element of training,

and we don't give it enough of our time and attention.

So I asked Mike Ricardy and Sarah hunting hockey.

Sarah.

Sarah is a massage therapist and the community director at finish line.

And Mike is my physical therapist.

One of my great, they're both two of my great friends.

So without further ado, let's talk about rest and recovery with Mike and Sarah.

Hi, my name is Sarah hunting Hockey, Hunting Hockey, for those who don't get it.
