Runners don't arrive with one tidy diagnosis. Running Repairs gives you the reasoning to assess and treat every injury, up and down the kinetic chain, with a system you can repeat on Monday morning.

The whole runner

You're not treating a knee. You're treating a runner.

Scroll from head to heel. Running Repairs assesses and treats the whole person — their beliefs, their stress, their fuelling and every link in the chain, not just the sore bit.

A runner heading towards the camera on an open road
The whole runner · Head

What they believe, and where they're headed

"I've a marathon in 12 weeks." "If I ease off, I'll lose all my fitness." Beliefs, concerns and goals are screened in session one, never as an afterthought, because they shape every decision that follows.

Module 1 · Key concepts & subjective assessment
The whole runner · Mind

The load that isn't on the legs

Work stress, anxiety, too many plates spinning. Mood and mental wellbeing sit inside the initial assessment, because psychosocial load changes how pain behaves and how much training a runner can absorb.

Module 1 · Subjective assessment
The whole runner · Fuelling

Energy, sleep and recovery

Diet, nutrition and sleep are screened from the start. Low energy availability and RED-S quietly undermine recovery and bone health, so fuelling and rest are treated as training, not afterthoughts.

Module 1 · Subjective assessment
The whole runner · Low back

Low back pain in runners

A step-by-step guide to assessing and treating low back pain in runners, from first presentation through to a clear, confident return-to-running path.

Module 12 · LBP in runners
The whole runner · Hip

Lateral hip & gluteal pain

Step-by-step assessment and treatment for lateral hip pain and gluteal tendinopathy, plus the deep buttock pain of proximal hamstring tendinopathy.

Modules 16 & 17 · Hamstring & lateral hip
The whole runner · Knee

Patellofemoral pain & ITB

The two you see most. Diagnose confidently, then build winning rehab with knee and hip-focused strength, control and power, tested and progressed without flaring symptoms.

Module 10 · ITBS & patellofemoral pain
The whole runner · Shin

Bone stress injuries

Tell a bone stress injury from shin splints from muscle overload, so a stress fracture is never missed, and manage medial tibial stress syndrome with a clear return path.

Module 8 · Bone stress injuries
The whole runner · Calf

Calf & muscle injuries

Diagnose and treat calf and anterolateral shin pain, and load the calf complex so runners tolerate speed and hills without flaring.

Module 9 · Muscle pain & overload
The whole runner · Achilles

Achilles tendinopathy

Differentiate and treat Achilles tendinopathy effectively, with evidence-based loading that rebuilds capacity stage by stage.

Modules 6 & 13 · Tendinopathy & Achilles in detail
The whole runner · Heel

Plantar heel pain

Address plantar fasciopathy across strength, control, range of movement and load capacity, with a plan the runner can actually stick to.

Module 7 · Plantar heel pain
The whole runner · Feet

Footwear & pronation

Know when pronation actually matters, and give footwear advice grounded in the runner in front of you, not the marketing on the box.

Module 15 · Footwear & pronation

Real reviews from physiotherapists, physical therapists, chiropractors and podiatrists around the world.

James ArmstrongPhysiotherapist · UK
Sandra Hardy, Physiotherapist · Canada
"As a physio and an ultrarunner, I highly recommend this course as a very complete overview of treating not only runners and walkers but also anyone with a lower limb injury, as the principles apply to everyone. I loved how many practical tips I learned with regards to gait analysis; progressive, graded loading and exercise; education (it works well with what I have previously learned in pain neuroscience courses); and the latest science (or lack thereof, in which case helpful suggestions were still made). There was so much useful content and my personal notes of important points totaled almost 30 pages!"
Sandra HardyPhysiotherapist · Canada
Jeff Dill, Physiotherapist · Canada
"I love the depth of content and the way it flows. The course has improved my knowledge of lower extremity injuries that I can incorporate not only in runners, but all patients! Tom has an incredible ability to articulate his points, and simplify concepts and ideas so they are easy to understand. Additionally, the pace of the course was perfect, as I never felt rushed when jotting down notes, as has been the case in other courses. This really allows you to absorb the information Tom is giving you. For me, this course is a "must" for anyone working in orthopaedics. It was a fantastic course that I'd recommend to anyone!"
Jeff DillPhysiotherapist · Canada

"If you want to improve your run of the mill daily MSK physiotherapy practice — go for this course. I am still learning 34 years into my career. My gait analysis has gone from nothing to analysing everyone I see. I cannot say how much I have enjoyed the course — Tom's easy style of teaching doesn't drown you in jargon, he knows his stuff."
Helen JacobsPhysiotherapist · UK
Cobus Keet, Physiotherapist · South Africa
"You can't treat runners properly until you've done Tom's Running Repairs Online Course! 10/10!"
Cobus KeetPhysiotherapist · South Africa
  • Couldn't begin to explain how good this course is. The level of content provided is amazing and I can highly recommend it.
    MattPhysiotherapist · Australia
  • Fantastic in-depth information, completely underpinned by evidence-based practice. I'm now significantly more confident when seeing runners and athletic populations and have many more tools in my tool box.
    CaitlynPhysiotherapist · UK
  • After doing the Running Repairs Online course I have a much better idea how to treat runners and return them to running.
    MollyPhysical Therapist (DPT, OCS) · US

  • A fantastic clinically useful course with tons of practical information that you can put into practice the next day. Clear, concise, and really breaks down the current complicated and often confusing research into much simpler, clinically applicable concepts. Tom is extremely generous with sharing info and always very accessible if you have any questions.

  • Hands down the best course I have been on. Every second is worthwhile and no time is wasted. The best thing about the Running Repairs Online course is its immediate applicability into your practice and for your patients. This course is pound for pound a highly worthwhile investment in yourself and your clinic and will greatly benefit your patients.

  • The Running Repairs online course has exceeded my expectations. There is a fantastic mix of evidence base, practical application and thorough explanation in each module. The content throughout is wide and varied and presented in a very down to earth way, consistently referring back to practical application. The videos are clear and concise and the online nature allows you to fully digest them over and over. Tom, and the Clinical Edge team have also been extremely accessible answering any queries immediately. It has inspired me to set up my own running specific service within the physio clinic that I work at and will be a constant source of reference.

  • Hi Tom, I just wanted to say how awesome the Running Repairs online course is. As a Podiatrist I am absolutely loving the new angles and new assessments which I am already introducing into my clinics to the huge benefit of my patients and my practice. It's literally the best thing I've done in a long time!! The course has been completely invaluable to me and has added hugely to my practice.

  • I finished your online course and wanted to say how good it is. You've clearly put a lot of time and passion into reading the research and creating this course - it's a very impressive body of work. I have learnt a lot from it and I'm sure people all over the place will have done too.

  • Just finished the Running Repairs Online course - what a fantastic course! Great balance of evidence, theory and practical strategies. The footwear module was great; in an era with an abundance of footwear advice and hype, you summed it up well, kept to the evidence and what works practically. It's easy to become overwhelmed with all the information out there, but you've packaged it into a nice bundle that is easy to understand and practical to implement!
    BrandonPhysiotherapist · Australia
  • Incredible content on all things running related, updated regularly. Do it sooner rather than later.
    Helen KeenePhysiotherapist (PhD) · UK
  • My results and confidence have improved a lot. I feel like I have more tools in my toolbox to help a variety of runners. Do it, it is 100% worth it!
    April EdwardsPhysiotherapist
  • This course addresses all the different aspects of running and more. The guidelines on when patients can safely start running after injury make a huge difference.
    Lucia DickinsonPhysiotherapist · South Africa
  • The research, great practical videos and progressive rehab exercises have made a significant improvement to my assessment, treatment and confidence. I highly recommend it!
    Mike DavisPhysiotherapist · UK
  • Comprehensive content. Fantastic tips, practical assessments and rehab exercises. I'm much more knowledgeable and skilled, which boosts your confidence. I would highly recommend the course.

Why create the Running Repairs Online course? Tom Goom's story

How did Tom Goom develop his knowledge, skills and passion for running injuries? Here's Tom's story.

Tom Goom
Tom Goom
Chartered Physiotherapist · Brighton, UK
Since 2014
Teaching Running Repairs worldwide

Running Repairs started at the finish. To be precise, at the finish of the Brighton marathon around a decade ago. I was watching in the Spring sunshine unaware that this was the beginning of my work and my life changing forever.

As I watched the runners battle through that finishing stretch I was in awe. I cheered so much I was hoarse for days! I've always been a runner and have competed since primary school cross-country but I'd never tackled the 'big one'. That was about to change. Within 24 hours I'd signed up for my first marathon, a race that ignited my passion for running rehab.

As I began training for my marathon, I pushed myself and was constantly keeping niggles at bay. I went on a runner's forum to see how others were getting on and what I found shocked me.

There were so many runners managing injuries and all were struggling to find quality treatment. I searched online and everywhere I looked it was the same - poor advice, "must-do" stretches and foam rolling, multiple different opinions without any evidence behind them.

I wanted to help all these runners, and I became a man on a mission! I spent hours answering question after question on running forums but with more questions coming up than I could answer I soon realised I needed to create a home for quality, evidence-based advice on running injuries - running-physio.com.

I explored strength and conditioning, load management, training optimisation and psychosocial factors in injury, gaining knowledge and experience all the time. The more my knowledge and skills developed around the latest research, the more I was able to help runners.

My treatment results with injured athletes started to get noticed and I became the 'go to guy' for running injuries, seeing everyone from weekend warriors to international athletes.

As my knowledge and passion grew I wanted to help fellow therapists get great results with athletes. I took what I learned and carefully shaped it into the first Running Repairs course which I presented in July 2014, covering all the key principles in managing running injury as well as how to treat all common pathologies we see in runners.

I've been very fortunate since then to present the course all over the world and meet some incredible therapists. Their feedback has taken Running Repairs to a new level.

In stepped Clinical Edge legend and good friend of mine, David Pope with the answer! David suggested we develop an online course where we could include ALL the aspects I wanted to cover, and therapists all over the world could enjoy it at their leisure. We combined my content with his extensive experience in online learning, and Running Repairs Online was born.

Since opening the Running Repairs Online course for enrolment in July 2017 we've been blown away by how popular it is and delighted with the feedback from participants. It's been amazing to see a community of thousands of Running Repairs Online course graduates grow around the world.

Sharing my knowledge and skills with you in the Running Repairs Online course will build your confidence in treating runners, and avoid the frustrations of not having a clear pathway to recovery for your running injury patients. I'm really proud of what we've created and I can't wait to share it with you!
