Stress fracture: can I start a walk run program? - a podcast by Dr. Christopher Segler

One of the biggest problems when you get a metatarsal stress fracture is deciding when it's safe for you to go to the next level of activity.

I just got a great question from a high school cross country runner who is healing from a stress fracture and wanted to get back to running as quickly as possible.

The question was whether or not it was okay to begin a walk/run program at four weeks of stress fracture healing?

Today on the Doc On The Run Podcast we’re talking about whether or not it is okay to begin a walk/run program when you are well on your way to healing a metatarsal stress fracture.
