Injuries and Illness

This section is going to contain a number of sections about a variety of subjects all aimed at helping runners when injury or illness strikes, which it inevitably will at some stage.

There will be articles written from a professional medical viewpoint and also those that are written by athletes and coaches from their perspective.

We are working to vastly increase the literature here, so if there is a subject that you are interested in, please contact us (see link at bottom of page) and let us know what it is and we'll try to help.
