About this listen
The team explores how running changes once the collegiate safety net of coaches, meal plans, and regimented schedules disappears. They unpack the biomechanics of patellar tendinopathy, patellar femoral knee pain, the impact of lifestyle stressors, the role of nutrition and hydration without institutional support, and the mental frustration of injury after multiple failed treatments. This conversation highlights what clinicians, athletes, and coaches need to consider when runners transition into “real life” training, and how an interdisciplinary approach can restore both performance and confidence.
Whether you’re a weekend warrior, a coach helping athletes through transitions, or a clinician working with frustrated runners, this case will give you practical insights into recovery, resilience, and the realities of post-college running.
