The Stronger Stride Podcast

138. Returning to running after nearly a year off!

Today’s solo ep with Lydia is all about the comeback from zero to hero! She takes you through her injury journey the last 12 months and how she’s returning to running.

She covers;

• what happens to the heart, lungs, muscles and bones when we have a prolonged period off training
• Lydia’s injury journey over the last 13 months
• things to consider before returning to running; calf capacity + hop testing
• making a plan, intensity, mileage
• bone strength + deload weeks
• comparison, social running + what not to do
