From Injury to Simpatico with Amy Albu

Trail Runner Nation

Amy Albu is an ultra verteran. Despite her youthful age, Amy has been running for 21 years and has 16 Mountain Masochist finishes to her name, including a recent 4th place in 2015. She is also the women's leader in the Beast Series and one race away from setting a new women's record.

It is hard to believe, but in February 2014, she snapped her lower leg and ankle during a race. We talk to Amy about her injury, surgery, recovery and return to running at an elite level.

Andy Jones-Wilkins is the executive producer and Tap Room host for this podcast. He compares his diagnosed end-stage arthritis and current recovery from hip socket resurfacing surgery.
