Yesterday I was speaking to an ultra-marathoner who had a metatarsal fracture.
Fortunately, the broken bone has been healing well and she's back to running.
But during our discussion yesterday she revealed something interesting. She was running every day. Just 3 miles…every day.
During that discussion I was trying to help her understand how it is that running every day, even short distances, in fact, extremely short by her standards as an ultramarathoner, those every day runs could actually put her at risk of re-injuring the metatarsal fracture.
