Running image - title says everything you don't know about running injuries with Brodie Sharpeå

Running injuries can be a bit of a mystery can’t they?

It often seems like you are on some kind of detective hunt to find the cause of those pesky running injuries and often you find more questions than answers. To make matters a whole lot worse, there’s a whole lot of misinformation out there and plenty of fear mongering as well. You are constantly getting bombarded with what to do, what not to do and sometimes there’s a whole lot of conflicting advice as well.

This week, I talked with Brodie Sharpe of the Run Smarter Podcast

Brodie is a physiotherapist that specialises in running injuries and injury prevention and you can find out more about what he offers at the Breakthrough Running Clinic and Run Smarter Online He’s passionate about breaking down some of those myths about running and running injuries and helping people to make better decisions sooner so that you can prevent injuries or at least make them far less long and let’s face it very annoying! Some of the topics that we focused on in this episode where:

  • What is the cause of knee pain and what can you do about it?
  • Is rest the answer for shin splints?
  • Is running really going to damage your joints?
  • Does stretching matter?
  • Should you use supports like orthotics?
  • Why is plantar fasciitis such a persistent and difficult injury to deal with?
  • Is bodyweight training really the best option for runners? Or should you be lifting weights?
  • And how to pick up the signs of when you need help vs a niggle you can manage on your own.

We covered a lot of ground and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!  

I’m writing a book about how to love running enough for it to change your life.

The book is going to focus on my journey so far, the when the why and the how of the workouts and of training, but also how it all connects to things that are far bigger than running. I’m taking up the challenge of writing a book in 30 days. Which is a lot of writing, but hopefully just enough pressure to keep the momentum going. You can sign up to read the daily words on patreon and get access to a whole range of bonus podcast episodes, and an ebook with 52 running workouts, so you’ll never be stuck for ideas ever again.

Caught an Osprey in flight today. I’ve been a bi Caught an Osprey in flight today. I’ve been a bit quiet as I get all my ducks in a row. University starts in a couple of weeks, new virtual assistant contract starts now and very soon I’ll start in person sessions in Alstonville on a Tuesday and a Friday morning. 

So it’s a lot. The running has been happening, but less talking about the running 😜

This morning as I ran up to the end of the North Wall there was a killer headwind and rain spitting teeny little rain bullets into my face and I kind of thought about turning around before the end of the wall. 

It seemed silly not to go to the end though. As I turned, some other brave all weather runner smiled at me “NOW we get the easy part”. 

I mean sure it’s a slog, but sooner or later you are flying.
It’s #longrunday snd I had my longest run in abo It’s #longrunday snd I had my longest run in about five months with zero leg niggles 🙌

I shall now celebrate with all the coffee.

Workouts are cool, but when easy starts to feel a Workouts are cool, but when easy starts to feel a whole lot easier, that’s even better 🙌

Second week back into school being back and starting to find my feet a bit. We have a meal plan for the week, tantrums about socks/hair have drastically reduced and I’m finding it easier to get out the door on time so I don’t feel rushed on my runs. 

I’ll take progress in any form 💜
I always get teased because so many things I say s I always get teased because so many things I say start with ‘I was listening to a podcast’. 

What can I say? Audio is my jam. It’s how I learn best and I absorb it even more when I’m listening and running. Actually a scientific thing to do with your learning centre in the brain going into neurogenesis when you do low level aerobic activity. 

I probably learnt that on a podcast. 

Anyway, I was listening to a podcast which was talking about having the courage to let go of the part of your business that on paper is by far the most lucrative, but is the least sustainable and stopping you from doing the things that matter. 

And I guess there’s something there, because I’m still thinking about it a few days later.  I’ll let my subconscious work on that for awhile longer. 

Anyway today I ran 2km @ 4:34 pace (the pace of my half marathon pb) and after 5 months of injury recovery I needed the reminder that I’m not done yet 💜
My favourite day is #longrunday and today I had a My favourite day is #longrunday and today I had a bit of extra pep in my step thanks to watching the nsw 5k championships last night 😉

Thank you to @athleticsnsw for putting together a great live streamed event that so many people enjoy!
I’m always pretty excited for the post-workout c I’m always pretty excited for the post-workout coffee part of my early mornings, but this is a nice reward too. 

When you are making changes, you’ll often default to outcomes. Look deeper and you’ll find how committing to the process can sustain you. But ultimately, if you want to change you have to find your way to the core: who do you believe you are?  Or who do you want to believe you are? 

Take all the things you want to believe about yourself and find baby steps that make it so.
Your reminder that when you are under a bit of pre Your reminder that when you are under a bit of pressure doing what you can, when you can is great. 

Picking the things that are easy and not hard is great too. 

It was a chocolate on the couch kind of week. 

Be cool with the version of yourself who is able to get out there and do all the things and the version of yourself that doesn’t.
Peak Thursday. This is why our take away night i Peak Thursday. 

This is why our take away night is Thursday, not Friday because that’s the day when you are almost at the end of the week but not quite that you need that extra bit of help, or a nap. Preferably both.
The secret to any good workout is to only worry ab The secret to any good workout is to only worry about how it feels until after it’s done. 

Because until then, you have no idea. How could you? 

That’s where the adventure is.
When often it seems like the rest of the world see When often it seems like the rest of the world sees running or training as a chore, how do you hold on to how you see it? 

It would be easy to let the weight of those perceptions seep into your body, take hold of your mind and behave like they belong there. 

You have to hold the centre. 

You have to nurture that part of yourself that fell in love with it all a long time ago. There were no ‘shoulds’ or ‘have tos’. 

You don’t need time off from happiness. You just have to make sure that you are holding on to the centre of it.
This week is kicking my ass and I know it’s bare This week is kicking my ass and I know it’s barely Tuesday! 

Maybe it’s the high school thing, maybe it’s a particularly heinous period with hormones going crazy, but I’m so teary. I’m not sad, I’m emotional and yay to being old enough to tell the difference I guess?

Anyway because of that I figured maybe nice the runs around, do the easy one and put off the tempo run. And that’s not necessarily a bad idea - sometimes you need that. 

But today I went and ran the tempo- sometimes you need that one thing you can do, without qualification, and hope that it allows you to do other things the same way.

Bone injuries tend to be more a problem of under-r Bone injuries tend to be more a problem of under-recovery rattler than over-training. 

So the recovery is the opposite of what got you there: Sleep first, Eat first, Treatment first, Strength first, Mobility first and after all of that only then do you get to run. 

Progress is slow and you have to be patient and trust that your fitness will come Bir from the running, but from the recovery and doing all of those things right. 

It takes time. Yesterday I was laughing that my 2:00 efforts were in fact slower than what I’ve run 21km before. 

But if I look back on that time it’s easy to remember the running and gloss over the hours of strength imbalance work, the fortnightly massages and treatments, the sleep habits or how well I was eating. 

But it’s all of those little things that allow the magic in a run to happen.
I’ve lost track of the amount of times that clot I’ve lost track of the amount of times that clothes have been marketed to me as ‘not having sweat marks’ because our culture is obsessed with women working out, but never looking like they are working out. 

Women sweat. And when they workout, they often look like they are working hard. It’s okay to look like you are working for it. 

It’s not for anyone else, it’s for you.
