    [Download] Proximal Hamstring Tendinopathy E-book Have you been battling a nagging injury like proximal hamstring tendinopathy and you have been trying to get faster but keep coming up short? If you are feeling lost and would really like to get a marathon personal best and qualify for the Boston Marathon then this is the episode for you! Teresa was suffering with upper hamstring tendon pain for 10 years and tried all types of treatments but every time she tried to run to her capability the pain would come back which left her feeling defeated and frustrated. If you have been diagnosed with PHT and you were told that you are getting too old for running or running is just not for you anymore then you will need to listen to Teresa’s inspiring story on how she went from struggling with chronic hamstring pain to running a marathon personal best and qualifying for the Boston Marathon! I have had the pleasure to witness Teresa’s transformation firsthand as her running physical therapist and coach through our Spark Healthy Runner signature coaching program and Teresa (like so many of the clients I am fortunate enough to work with) not only got back to running pain free but got the guidance from coach Lu on our team to take her marathon training to the next level to get that BQ! I genuinely enjoyed this conversation and reflection of 8 months of training with the Spark Healthy Runner coaching team. We talked about the following and so much more! Teresa’s Hamstring tendon pain for 10 years Failed half marathon attempts What helped most with getting pain free New York half marathon without hamstring pain Beginning marathon training with coach Lu Teresa runs a marathon PR and gets that BQ! What did Teresa learn most about herself during marathon training Words of wisdom for getting a marathon PR PHT recommendations What’s next in Teresa’s running journey - Listen to my previous episode on understanding proximal hamstring pain in runners - Listen to my previous episode on how this physician went from PHT to NYC marathon finisher! - Watch how Lisa went from a hamstring injury to crushing a BQ in 16 weeks! - Watch how Gretchen went from frustrated injured runner to getting her running life back If you are a runner who is looking for an individualized proximal hamstring tendinopathy plan and want to run pain free then you can begin to work with Dr. Duane Scotti within our 1:1 signature Healthy Runner Coaching program here.
