COnsulting For Runners 

KME headshot.JPEG

You’ve rested. You’ve seen other providers. You’ve tried the exercises, changed the shoes, maybe even stopped running altogether. But the pain is still there or worse, the uncertainty. Something’s off, and no one has given you a clear answer.

​

This is where I come in.

​

I work with runners and high performers. Collegiate and professional athletes, CEOs, founders, and driven professionals who are used to pushing hard and showing up, in sport and in life. For people like you, running isn’t just exercise. It’s structure. It’s identity. It’s your reset button. And when that’s disrupted, it affects everything.

​

Whether you’re recovering from injury, feeling like your body isn’t keeping up, or simply want to understand what’s holding you back, I look at the full picture: biomechanics, training load, injury history, movement patterns, stress, recovery, and identity. My process is rooted in expertise, but centered on you.

​

If you’re ready to stop guessing and start getting real answers, I’d love to help. Let’s figure this out—together.

Injury, Return to Running, Unresolved injury / Performance issues

-post-ai-image-24780.png

I came to Dr. Kate with a chronic hamstring injury after going to several of my local providers in a pretty running savvy community. Where I was in my treatment was back to running, but my goals were to be able to get back to performing at an elite level. There had been months of me doing hamstring loading exercises, and I was curious as of why I wasn’t able to get to the next phase of my return. I felt stuck in a box where my hamstring felt stronger, but my mechanics would not normalize and I literally could not move forward.

 

Just walking beside Dr. Kate, she knew my gait was compromised and made her curious as to why. She went through a thorough series of tests with me and she was able to narrow in on the root cause of my abnormal mechanics. Having an injured hamstring for months, it felt healing for her to go through a process that actually pointed at my hamstring tendon being in a good place but needing to work on other variables. She gave me targeted exercises to improve neural tension and hip extension. Just having these two areas as focuses in my recovery has dramatically changed the trajectory of my comeback. Instead of thinking I had a non-healing injury, I have a workable solution. I am so grateful for Dr. Kate and the time she spent getting me back to the level I desire to be at.

Private Consulting with Dr. Kate Mihevc Edwards PT, DPT, OCS

When running is part of who you are, an injury or setback isn't just physical it affects your identity, your clarity, your stress management, and your confidence. You’ve likely been to multiple providers, followed protocols, and gathered pieces of the puzzle but still don’t have a complete picture.

​
My consulting work is designed for high performers: runners, student-athletes, founders, professionals, and leaders who need more than general advice. They need someone who sees the whole picture, asks the right questions, and builds a plan that makes sense for their body, their life, and their goals.
This is in-depth, collaborative work. It’s for people who are ready to dig in and finally understand what’s holding them back.
