Running Devil on Your Shoulder?

Jun 05, 2026

If you seem to get pain EVERY training cycle, this one's for you.

The fall half and full marathon training cycle is about to begin!! Yippee!! 

Except, you're worried about how your body will take the increase in mileage.

Because no matter what you do, something always seems to pop up...  

  • After doing long runs past 7-10 miles

  •  After hitting those 20+ mile weeks

  • After buying new shoes 
  • After trying every video of exercises from online influencers

And you go into panic mode because here it is AGAIN. Rest days help, but the pain always seems to come back.

If this is the case, it's usually not one isolated problem. Which (sorry)  means there is not one quick-fix solution... Learn more below!

I wish I could say that I know exactly the right solution when you tell me you have knee/hip/foot/ankle/back pain with running. 

The reality is that when you tell me that, I just have about 5000 questions pop into my mind on what to ask you about your issue. 

Because recovering from an injury is like baking a cake. 

Say you want to purchase a chocolate cake from the bakery. As the baker, I need the flour, the sugar, the eggs, etc... I wish I could pull a chocolate cake out of nothing, but that's not how life works (wouldn't that be fun!). 

To get results that last, you need the time and the recipe to get there. I'm not a quick-fix solution kind of physical therapist and coach because I want you to have a foundation that withstands the storm.

If that sounds like something you'd want to, but (like me) are stubborn and independent, then that's why I made the Runner's Checklist Course. 

Set aside 2 hours this weekend to run through the step-by-step videos I've created to help you self-identify what needs attention and HOW to address it.

Questions about the course? Or have questions as you go through the course?

No problem! I'm here to answer.

Shoot me an email at [email protected] and I'll get back to you. 

As always,

Happy Running!

- Dr. Erin

Celebrate the Mile Markers
It's been several weeks since my last email - thank you all who have checked in!  Our baby girl, Audrey, was born one week ago and we have been home recovering ever since. Here's a photo of us before going on our first postpartum walk (a verrrry slow .25 mile).  As many of my coaching athletes know, by the end of pregnancy, I was eagerly waiting to be "on the other side" of recovery. These pas...
Calf Cramps: Muscle Fatigue or Missing Electrolytes?
Have you ever experienced calf cramping during a run, particularly late into a long distance race? Unfortunately, I have experienced cramps during three out of my twelve marathons, and there's really nothing more frustrating when it happens. Because if you have experienced this too, you know that there's no going back once it starts.  But as a physical therapist and run coach, I don't want you ...
There Are Diaper Boxes On My Treadmill
We have a NordicTrack treadmill in our garage. It was the first big purchase I made for my business when I first started seeing my own running patients in our basement back in 2021. My husband and I have disassembled and reassembled it at least three times (hopefully never again!) as we've moved throughout the years and now it sits in our garage as part of our home gym. And last year, while tra...
