    These videos are always such a delight! 😊 I've implemented most of these tips in my return from injury, and still continue to do. Although one of the biggest motivators in my return has had to be watching awesome well made running content like yours. Just kept me sane, pushing to get back, doing all the little things, and staying patient. Currently having a setback with my knee, so this video was much needed 😁👏

    Nice video. As someone who got an injury (calf strain) whilst returning to running from a lengthier injury (bone stress), trying to remember you'll be healthy again is crazy tough. Cliche but the mental battle is so much harder than anything physical.

    Very relateable...love the transparency! Ran an all out BQ qualifier in March and then ramped up mileage/intensity too quickly while not sleeping great. Got ITBS that took 8wks to rehab and then plantar fasciatis that's taken another 8wks to improve. I'm now strength training & easy running building to 30mpw by strictly only increasing mileage 10% per wk and trying to improve sleep/listening to body.

    Hey Dom. What are you going to do differently this time round to ensure you don't get another injury? Is it mainly a focus on nutrition and your new footwear? 😊😊 I'm super scared to get another injury once I start running again. For me, I think the big change will be a big cut in volume and more cross training.

    • @AverageDomSlim

    Class as always, however how come a month has gone by and nobody has even mentioned the dark chocolate dunking? I mean, maybe I need to get out more and I appreciate you Southern Hemisphere humans do like to do things with the occasional controversial slant. But I can honestly say, I've never witnessed this act before. Yet my little neurons are tingling with the concept now. Playing through the motions, the tilt, the dip, the dunk, the pause, oh that sweet moment of pause where you weigh up all of the variables. Drink temperature, chocolate melt point, wind direction, moon phase and associated gravitational forces at play... It's a whole new world!!!!
