Stronger for Trails Podcast

I sat down for a chat with fell runner, and fellow Salomon Ambassador, Jacob Tonkin. Jacob is also the man behind Tonkin Massage Therapies. He offers a wide variety of treatments such as sport injury rehabilitation, myofascial releases, scar tissue treatment, pre and post event massage, kinesiology taping and general aches and pains. During this chat we discuss how Jacob got into fell running, his experience of being diagnosed with Crohns Disease and how that effected his life and his long road back to full fitness. We also discuss some of the most common injuries that runners suffer from, how to avoid trips to the physio and how we can look after ourselves better.
