Blokeology

Episode Notes In this episode, I take a deep dive into the research evidence around some running topics. That is what Blokeology is all about and it is time to get into a little more detail. I’ve picked out three research papers covering the topics of blisters, gait-retraining, and compression clothing. We sift out the facts (or as close to facts as we can get) but also take some time to think about the research and just how helpful it is. Here are the three papers with links and time stamps if you want to skip right to them: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/28602272 (Prevention of Friction Blisters in Outdoor Pursuits: A Systematic Review) 01:30 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/29065279 (Gait Retraining for the Reduction of Injury Occurrence in Novice Distance Runners) 13:15 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/27106555 (Is There Evidence that Runners can Benefit from Wearing Compression Clothing) 19:04 Podcast Promotion We’d love it if you could please share #Blokeology with your Twitter follow
