About this episode
Whether you’re staring down surgery or merely fascinated by inspiring tales of recovery, this is the episode for you. Hosts Sarah Bowen Shea and Molly Williams talk with three guests: Kevin Stone, M.D., an orthopaedic surgeon and author of Play Forever: How to Recover from Injury & Thrive, plus two women runners who had hip replacement surgery within the last few years. Listen and learn about:
-the relief the runners felt post-surgery;
-return-to-running time after joint replacement surgery;
-steps to take pre-surgery to improve success;
-the importance of shopping for a surgeon; and,
-how one guest qualified for Boston Marathon on her new hip!
In the intro, co-host Molly shares about her own knee replacement, and tells of a recent backpacking excursion. Dr. Stone joins the conversation at 6:33.
