Running through pain: interviews with an Orthopedist, Podiatrist and Researcher

A while back, I interviewed a Dr. Nick DiNubile (orthopedist), Dr. Ira Meyers (podiatrist), and Dr. Marty Hoffman (researcher). Besides having different specialty perspectives, each doctor came at pain from a different experiential angle. Dr. DiNubile was not a runner, Dr. Meyers is a runner, and Dr. Hoffman is an ultrarunner. 

I interviewed each doctor and wrote a 3 article piece for E-zine magazine. The articles provide the beginner and recreational runner with some common sense advice regarding whether to run through pain or not.

Here's are the Article Links:
1. Running with Pain: Breaking the Rules
2. Running with Pain: Unacceptable Pain
3. Running with Pain: The Mistake Zone

More about Dr. DeNubile here.

More about Dr. Meyers here.

In this interview, Dr. Hoffman talks about the key research in the Ultra study--"the most extensive research to date on ultrarunners."

What I like about Charlie (hint: he's a doctor of PT)

Picture


















​
I met Charlie at All Kinds of Fast Running Store in Phoenixville, PA. Charlie has a doctorate
in Physical Therapy. Bottom line: he can diagnose. Essentially, Charlie is what becomes before the MRI. 

So if you have a nagging or acute injury and you're not sure if you should run, a PT doc like Charlie should be on your radar. He'll do a differential diagnosis and help you figure out your best course of action. 

Don't go too excited. He may shut you down. But I guarantee you'll walk out the door knowing your best options. 

Here's his website:
www.physicaltherapyjohnson.com 

Here's his contact info: Charlie Johnson, PT, DPT, OCS

Email: charliejohnsondpt@gmail.com
Phone: 484-552-3767

Plantar fasciitis in plain speak

Picture
Paul Ingraham is a science writer and amateur athlete with a massage background. What I love about Paul is that he tries to separate anecdote from solid research. He discussion on plantar fasciitis is comprehensive and actionable. Warning: if you want the complete plantar fasciitis manuscript, it will cost you $20. However, you can pick up a lot of good information and direction for further research by reading his teaser. Here's the link: Pain Science: Plantar Fasciitis
