About this episode
Shin splints are one of the most common running injuries you can get. And it’s also preventable. Today’s conversation is all about shin splints with physical therapist and run coach, Duane Scotti. We’ll discuss: How and why runners get shin splints as well as who’s most susceptible, How to treat them if you get them, and How to get back to running safely and never worry about them again If you’ve ever had this injury before or if you’d like to prevent getting it, this is the episode for you. This is also a great time to share this one with a running buddy who’s going through this. Welcome to the Planted Runner.

I am a long-time listener, but I am really appreciating the 3 month marathon series. With a spring marathon on my calendar, it’s helping know I’m on track to be successful! Thank you, Claire! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐A highlight of my week It is a gift to be able to have a space for plant-based runners to learn! Claire’s advice is always solid and not just limited to the plant-based, but doesn’t include fueling your runs with unhealthy foods, which seems to happen on other podcasts. Thank you! AmyFica ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Best running podcast As a seasoned marathoner but new plant-based runner, Coach Claire is a valuable resource. Solid content for runners across the spectrum, I especially appreciate her confidence in middle age running ladies like myself who are trying to keep up the hobby they love most. She has helped me maintain my competitive nature while being realistic about my stage in life. Thank you for fantastic content! Scmilezzz Music Credits: Music from Uppbeat
