Plantar Fasciitis Get Rid of The Pain Before Race Day

Season 2 of Running to the Castle Podcast w/ Dr. Ali Marty

Episode 105 Plantar Fasciitis Pain Before Princess Half Marathon runDisney Races

In this episode of Running to the Castle you’ll learn how to get rid of plantar fasciitis pain before race day, like Princess Half Marathon Weekend.

Learn about managing plantar fasciitis before a race with pain management (ice, heat, Epsom salt baths, massage) and the importance of distinguishing between short-term (inflammation) and long-term (scar tissue) treatments.  As a reminder, while massage helps short-term pain, long-term prevention requires strengthening exercises, the focus should be on preventative strength training in the off-season and immediate pain relief when you’re training for a race or getting close to race day.
