The single most important thing you can do when you think you have a running injury is to make a decision, quickly.

You only have two choices.

1. Realize and admit you are injured and get about the business of recovery.

2. Confirm you aren't really injured and then adjust your course to continue your training.

But what most runners do is something in between. We want to believe we are not injured. We want to think we can continue training.

And instead of just kidding about the business of recovering and then training, we just make things worse.

Today on the Doc On The Run podcast, we're talking about how indecision prevents running injury recovery.
