⭐⭐ Runner Injury Talk: How We Manage Pain, Training & Big Goals | TRJ #143

Another week on The Running Journey, and this one gets real.

Charlie's gearing up for his next A-Race, Rob opens up about a brutal injury flare-up during his training block, and we break down the reality every runner eventually faces:

👉 injuries suck.
But they don't have to end your season.

In this episode we cover:
• Charlie's upcoming race & Guinness World Record side mission
• Surviving terrible weather and still getting the training done
• Rob's injury story + the 100KM run that made it worse (debatable)
• What our parents are doing athletically (yes, they're grinding too!)
• Practical injury tips, mindset strategies, and what actually works
• A sneak peek at our 2026 Backyard Ultra plans 👀

If you've ever been sidelined, scared to run, or nervous about training through pain — this episode is for you. Recover smarter, run stronger, stay consistent. 💛🏃‍♂️
