From Fracture to Finish Line: A Marathon Runner’s Remarkable Recovery Journey

Dr. Kevin Richardson has a passion for running, but a foot injury sidelined his training. Seeking answers to get him back on the road, he came to see Dr. Keith Spain for answers.

Dr. Spain diagnosed Richardson with a right metatarsal stress fracture and mapped out a meticulous recovery program. Dr. Spain’s regimen wasn’t merely a prescription; it was a hands-on approach that involved demonstrating each recommended routine, emphasizing proper form to ensure optimal recovery. This approach allowed Richardson to not only understand, but also effectively carry out the prescribed cross-training and strength rehabilitation exercises.

The plan paid off. Dr. Richardson competed in the 2023 London Marathon with a performance that exceeded his expectations. 

In his own words, Dr. Richardson says, “I can’t thank Dr. Spain enough for helping me return to training following my foot injury. The result of the London Marathon is a tribute to his precise diagnosis, and the practical, step-by-step recovery plan he provided.”
