Whether you are conscious of it or not, when you are recovering from a running injury you are probably a little bit gun shy.
Every runner who has ever had to cancel a race or abandon a training plan because of an over- training injury understands how demoralizing and frustrating it is to lose all of your fitness and start training just so you can rest and heal.
If you suffered through that routine it shouldn't really be surprising that you probably have some trepidation in the back of your mind. Although it's probably been pushed into the deepest corners of your brain you have fear holding you back.
Injured runners become afraid of pain.
