To be fair I used to run only in racing flats at her age- thought I was unbreakable. A nasty calf tear taught me the hard way.She is injured atm and think she has a had some niggles in the past too, not to mention the achilles injury after her ultra. Think the shoes are definitely partly to blame. No one else runs all their runs in racing shoes and they’re definitely not meant to be worn that way. I really respect her in other ways and appreciate the fact she’s in contact with a physio etc. However, she needs to stop giving people advice to wear racing shoes all the time though. They’re also definitely not going to make any positive impact on just an average runner which I’m assuming most of her followers and clients are. Think she needs to go get fitted for some other trainers to add to her rotation since she thinks no other shoes work for her (after only trying out about 2-3 different shoes)
She really shouldn’t be pretending to be an expert run coach- a year or so of running is not exactly a wealth of experience.
