OvercastIn this episode, Caitlin Miller shares her journey of overcoming injury and returning to running. She started running casually in New York City and gradually became more serious, setting goals to run the world majors.
However, she experienced a stress fracture in her hip, which was a setback in her training. She took the injury seriously, went through physical therapy, and gradually built her strength and mileage back up.
She ran the London Marathon but didn’t have the experience she had hoped for. She then set her sights on the Tokyo Marathon and had a much more enjoyable and successful race. Now, she is preparing for the Berlin Marathon and has learned to set time goals and trust her training.
