Member Monday 💥

After losing his mom to lung cancer last year, Callum set out to honor her by running a marathon every month — and that tribute turned into a full-on passion. He’s now completed 16 marathons (plus a few ultras!) in the past year.

After a knee injury during a 50-miler in June, Callum came to The Run RX just five weeks before his biggest challenge yet: 6 marathons in 6 days across Scandinavia and the Baltic States.

Together we focused on calming his knee down, adjusting training, and rebuilding hip and knee stability — and thanks to his consistency, he completed all 6 marathons without being limited by pain. 🙌

Callum is now back in the clinic, continuing to build resilience for the miles ahead.

Next up: Boston 2026.
Callum, you inspire all of us at The Run RX. 💛🏃🏻‍♂️✨

You’re probably familiar with our motto: Run, recover, repeat. But what does “recover” really mean?

Recovery is the process of allowing your body to repair, refuel, and adapt after training so you can come back stronger for your next run.

The five pillars of recovery:

1. Time — You can’t rush adaptation. No amount of foam rolling can speed up your body’s natural physiological timelines.
2. Rest — Rest days aren’t just for injury prevention; they’re when your body absorbs the training and rebuilds even stronger than before.
3. Sleep — Sleep of sufficient quality and quantity is one of the most powerful recovery tools we have.
4. Nutrition — Fueling well (including hydration!) gives your body the building blocks it needs to repair and adapt.
5. Stress Management — Your body doesn’t separate physical stress from emotional stress. High life stress means you may need more recovery or reduced training load.

In short: your progress isn’t just made in the miles you run — it’s built in the recovery time between runs.

QUALITY + INNOVATION ⭐

At The Run Rx, “good enough” isn’t good enough.
Every rep, every cue, every session - we’re intentional about it all. Because runners don’t need cookie-cutter care… they need care that actually keeps up with them.

Quality means consistency, clarity, and never phoning it in.
It’s attention to detail at every touchpoint from the moment you walk in, to how we cue your movement, to how your plan is designed, progressed and delivered.

No generic handouts. No assumptions. No one-size-fits-all anything.
Every exercise, progression and piece of education is built specifically for you - your body, your goals, your season of life.

Quality isn’t the extra. It’s the standard.

Innovation is how we stay ahead - using smart tools, sharp clinical thinking and solutions that are functional, not flashy.

It’s why your program is customized, refined, and always evolving.
It’s why you leave feeling seen, stronger and supported not confused or hoping for the best.

High intention. Intelligent ex*****on. Better outcomes.
That’s the standard here. ✨

Runners often spend a lot of time thinking about the type of surfaces they are training on. However, there is not necessarily a "bad" surface to train on, and exposing your body to a variety of surface types is probably best! Scroll through to learn more.

💥 Surgery isn’t always the best answer hip labrums

While hip impingement and labral tears can be frustrating, research shows that many people continue to have stiffness or pain even after surgery. At The Run Rx, we help runners improve mobility, strength, and movement control to relieve pain and prevent surgery altogether.

Setting a goal time for a new race distance isn’t just about picking a number that “sounds good.” It’s about understanding how your current fitness translates across distances, and figuring out where the room for improvement lies.

At The Run Rx, connection and trust come naturally — because we’re runners too. 🏃‍♀️
That shared identity helps us understand the drive, the setbacks, and the meaning behind every mile. It’s what allows our care to feel both personal and precise — grounded in empathy, built on trust, and backed by expertise.

When you work with someone who truly gets it, the path to recovery and performance feels different — because it is.

There’s no one “right” way to lift for runners. But if you’re looking for an easy-to-follow formula, this framework is tried-and-true to keep you strong, balanced, and resilient.

✨ Warm-up: Dynamic mobility + activation for hips, feet, and ankles

💪 Strength Exercise Categories:
Make sure each of these boxes is checked when planning a strength workout

☑️ Heavy, compound lower body lift (pick one movement type)
• Push movement: Squat, lunge, step ups
• Pull movement: Deadlift variations  ☑️ Plyometric
☑️ Calf strength  ☑️ Single-leg move (other movement type than heavy lift)
☑️ Core strength  ☑️ Upper body (pick one movement type for a more efficient workout, or one of each movement type for a more well rounded strength workout)
• Push movements: Pressing movements, push ups
• Pull movements: Row, lat pull down, pull up

Pro tip: Break your strength exercises into two circuits. Your first circuit should include the more challenging and demanding exercises, and your second circuit the exercises focused more on control.

🔥 Circuit A:  • Heavy compound lift  • Plyometric • Calf strength

💥 Circuit B: • Single leg strength  • Upper body strength  • Core strength  • Accessory or “focus area” work

🧘‍♀️ Cool down: Wrap it up with mobility focused on your personal tight spots.

👉 Remember — this isn’t a hard rule, just a flexible structure that works for most runners. The magic is in finding what your body needs!
