Whether you’re training for your next race, coming back from an injury, or just lacing up your running shoes for the first time — this episode is packed with valuable insights to help you stay strong, healthy, and consistent as a runner.

In this episode of Finding Fortitude, I sat down with physiotherapist and running coach, Emma Vaillancourt, to dive into all things running injuries and recovery. Emma shares her perspective as both a clinician and an athlete, breaking down common myths and helping runners understand how to train smarter and return to running safely after injury.

Together, we explore:

• The most common running injuries and why they happen
• “Niggles” vs. injuries (and when to take it seriously)
• How to tell if you’re ready to return to running after injury
• Key risk factors that increase your chance of getting hurt
• And so much more!

Whether you’re a seasoned runner or just getting started, this episode will help you better understand your body, trust the process, and run with confidence.
