The physical part isn’t what’s hardest about being injured. It’s all of the mental and emotional experiences that can come with it. When an injury takes running away you are facing a major stressor and losing your best tool for managing stress at the same time. Injuries are isolating at a time when you need your running community more than ever. That’s where this group comes in! The Aid Station is a 4 week peer support group for injured runners navigating the emotional and mental parts of injury and recovery. This is a VIRTUAL group and all registered participants will receive a secure link ahead of the first meeting.
