Running pain-free after 8 years: Albert
Albert runs without pain again. After eight years.
“I’m running again, pain-free. And that’s a godsend.”
Albert tells his story (86 seconds, in Dutch)
Eight years ago
Albert is 61 and a father of three. And he loves running far.
“I’m a passionate ultrarunner, a long-distance runner.”
“In all the years I’ve been doing it, something went wrong eight years ago.”
Bending down to pick something up, lifting something heavy: he felt it every time. It started to control his life.
“I followed all kinds of therapies for it. In the end none of it helped.”
Looking at how he runs
Then he came to Jari, the movement specialist at CrossFit Leiden. He looked at his posture and at the way he runs. We call that analysis the Body-APK.
“And it is really starting to pay off.”
Past 10
Albert is honest about where he stands. He is not there yet, but he is running again.
“I’m not running 60 kilometres like I used to, but I’m past 10 by now, and without pain.”
He also feels many times more powerful and stronger.
“As far as I’m concerned, this is here to stay.”
I’m running again, pain-free.
This is Albert’s experience. Every body is different. Read more about Unlock Motion, the small-group programme that starts with a Body-APK, or find more member stories under Testimonials.
