🏃‍♂️ A few things runners should avoid before race day:

❌ Ignoring niggles because “taper is coming soon anyway”
Small issues can quickly become bigger problems. Early management is always easier.

❌ Guessing your training load
Not every training plan suits every runner. If you’re unsure whether your volume or intensity is right for you, get some personalised advice.

✅ Load management is king
Most running injuries come from doing too much, too soon, too often. Sometimes a rest day or deload week is exactly what your body needs.

🚨 Don’t push through bone stress injuries
A low-grade bone stress injury can quickly become a higher-grade injury requiring months of rehab if ignored.

Train smart now so you can race your best later

Keeping Young Cross Country and Track Runners Healthy - Don’t Wait Until You’re Injured!

Many athletes only seek help when pain begins affecting their training or competition. However, some of the greatest benefits of physiotherapy and massage therapy occur before an injury develops...

What people call ‘shin splints’ is almost always medial tibial stress syndrome.

It’s a soft-tissue and bone-stress problem at the inside of the shin. Not a splint. Not a tendon snap. Not a tear.

What causes it 90% of the time:
✓ A sudden jump in running volume
✓ Going from flats to a track too quickly
✓ Adding hills before the legs are ready
✓ New shoes with a different drop

What helps:
✓ Backing off volume (not stopping completely)
✓ Calf strengthening that progresses week to week
✓ A look at the running technique
✓ Patience

Left too long, this becomes a stress reaction, and a stress reaction is six to eight weeks off running, minimum. Don’t gamble on it.

Concussion symptoms aren’t always obvious.

It’s not just headaches or dizziness, changes in sleep, mood, vision, neck pain, and mental fatigue can all be part of the picture after a head knock.

The good news? Most concussions recover really well with the right guidance and gradual return to activity 👏

If symptoms are lingering beyond 2 weeks, it may be time for a proper concussion assessment.
