Fracture walking boots are over-prescribed and often worn for way too long by many injured runners.

Nobody who's a runner wants to be injured or wants to have to wear a fracture walking boot.

It's really easy to get angry and resentful about feeling like you wasted time in a fracture walking boot while you are recovering.

You may be upset just because you've been sitting around recovering.

You may be angry because you feel like a boot is the standard routine and deserve something better.

Maybe you think your doctor hasn't been proactive enough and you haven't been able to get back to running fast enough.

Today on the Doc On The Run podcast, we're talking about being angry about having lost time from running in a fracture walking boot.
