Stress Fractures in Runners | What They Are and Why They Matter #126
Update: 2025-10-06
Description
Stress fractures are one of the most common running injuries (up to 20% of them), but what actually are they, why do they happen, and why do some take longer to recover than others?In this video, I explain: • What a stress fracture is and how it develops • Why taking time off running is often essential for healing • Why not all stress fractures are the same (location and severity matter) • What runners should know about recovery and reducing riskI’m a Sports Podiatrist and PhD researcher candidate in running injuries, and my goal is to give runners clear, evidence-based information to help them train smarter and stay injury free.
