Where it hurts is not always where it starts. PainPath shows you where to look and what to do so it stops coming back.

Sound familiar?
You skip the long run and push the race back. Rest helps for a while, so it feels like the right move. Then the first longer run brings it back.
Rest was not the problem. Often, the spot was.
Try it
Pick a spot. See what it often is and how you solve it so it stops coming back.
Often the tendons at the outer ankle, or the muscles above them that steady your foot on every landing.
Often the tendon itself, and often a deep calf muscle that was never trained and leaves the tendon with more of the load.
Often the band on the outside of your thigh, and often tired hip muscles that let the knee drift inward.
Common patterns, not a verdict. In the app you check it with your own hands first, and your plan follows your result.

About 3 minutesPress where the app shows you. If it brings on your pain, you have a strong lead.
About 2 minutesExercises for where it starts, then a small habit that keeps it from coming back.
10 to 15 minutes a dayWhy it exists
For more than six months the outside of my right foot hurt. I rested it, pressed it, waited. It kept coming back.
The real driver sat higher up: an overloaded muscle on the side of my shin and a calf I had never trained. Once I knew where to look, I finally had something to work on.
PainPath is the app I wish I had on day one.
