Description

Calling all runners and walkers: This is a lively, enlightening conversation about a painful condition that afflicts far too many active folks. Hosts Sarah Bowen Shea and Amanda Loudin talk with physical therapist Denise Smithan avid walker who currently has plantar fasciitis (PF); and a runner who finally (!) kicked PF. The conversation covers a lot of ground, including:


-what plantar fasciitis is and its most common symptoms; 


-the myriad (so many!!) causes of PF; 


-the lowdown on cortisone injections; 


-how two active women developed + dealt with PF; and, 


-what a “foot push-up” is! 


 


Before the first of the three guests joins at around 12:19 , Amanda tells tales of her latest Adirondack High Peaks climbs.
