21: Brynn Fessette O'Neill, Physical Therapist at Finish Line Physical Therapy

Brynn Fessette O'Neill is a physical therapist at Finish Line Physical Therapy in New York City — in fact, she's my physical therapist! On this episode, Brynn talks about how she became a physical therapist and shares her advice for anyone considering a similar career path. She talks about the three things runners should be doing every single day to stay healthy and injury-free, dishes on the difference between her male and female patients — spoiler, she says women are way tougher — and discusses the most common injuries and issues she sees in athletes. This is a must-listen for runners!
