On this episode of the podcast, we talk to Tonya Olson who is the co-author of the book Fixing Your Feet. We talk how to prepare your feet before a race, caring for your feet during a race, and also some post race tips. The show is packed with content and we think that knowing how to take care of your feet is one of those important tools in the toolbox as you are putting together your own blueprint for running ultras.Connect with Tonya on IG: @tonyakolsondptWebsite: https://www.drtonyafootcare.com/Also, Tonya shared some post podcast video links for you that you can check out here.Here's my foot strengthening video: https://vimeo.com/993793434And, one to bulletproof your plantar fascia, ankle, calves.My heel raise protocolhttps://vimeo.com/999141770From Tonya: "The heel raises are best done on a slant board, or off a 2x4, or something that feels like a good stretch when your heel is at the bottom. It's essential that you're doing these so your heel lands on a solid surface, not off a step into the great abyss."
