Episode Synopsis "Sports Injury Talk: Kara Goucher - Hamstring Injuries "

Welcome to Sports Injury Talk presented by REGAIN sports drink and momentum fitness and health. Conversations are lead by Jason Venckus, NASM Certified Personal Trainer and Corrective Exercise specialist. Each episode he will take a sports injury that happened over the last week, break it down, apply it to daily living and talk about how we can both treat and prevent this same issue in our own lives. You may have heard that Kara Goucher (world champion silver medalist and two-time Olympian) has switched to trail running. She has a long list of road/ track racing accomplishments including: first at the 2008 Olympic Trials in the 5000 meter, third in both the NY and Boston Marathons in 2008 and 2009 respectively, and won the US women’s championship in the half marathon in 2012. After an attempted return to marathon in Houston in early 2019, she decided that she would make the switch. Why? In this episode you will learn about her injury (hamstring), how you can avoid it yourself and what you can do for mild hamstring injuries.
