Episode Notes
Peter Francis PhD is a sports scientist, runner, and Musculoskeletal Science Lead at Leeds Beckett University.

If you’ve ever had an achilles problem then you need to listen to his advice on managing that injury. How about barefoot running for plantar fasciitis? Could be a game changer. And we were in agreement that the porridge-like lump between our ears might be the most important part of getting fitter and managing injuries.
