Episode 50 of the Run Culture Podcast:
One of the most informative yet, for any keen runner trying to master the balance between optimal running performance and minimizing the risk of injury, this is another must listen!
Last week I had a great yarn with good friend Kevin Craigie; an APA titled Sports Physiotherapist. Kevin has been part of the physiotherapy team for Athletics Australia since 2011 and is the current Lead Physiotherapist with the Pathways Program, physiotherapist for the Victorian Institute of Sport Athletics Program and a touring physio for Athletics Australia.
Kevin has worked alongside some of the countries best athletes, coaches and clinicians to develop strategies for injury prevention, training, recovery and rehabilitation. He has also worked with St. Kilda Football Club on their running mechanics.
Kevin was also a very distinguished runner himself over the past 20 plus years and has some very handy track 1500-5000m times to boot. His ongoing battles with a likely genetic predisposition for navicular bone stress injuries makes his running achievements all the more admirable and certainly has assisted his development into a well experienced/educated running physio!
Have a listen, perfect for a long run or car trips; lots of takeaways from this one, almost split it into two episodes! Many thanks Kevin Craigie!
