It's a new way of thinking about what success means as a runner. A better approach to rehabilitating running injuries. And a proven path to becoming ever stronger.

Our story began with an injury. While training to become a physical therapist himself, our founder, Luke Hollomon, a seasoned runner, sustained a knee injury that stopped his running progress. Despite following traditional physical therapy for his knee injury—completing prescribed exercises and taking time off—Luke found himself in an all-too-common predicament. His knee had improved, but after six weeks away from running, he faced a crucial question: What next?

The standard return-to-run programs weren't designed for runners like him. They didn't account for his years of training, his previous weekly mileage, or his competitive goals. These generic run-walk programs were built for beginners, leaving runners like Luke without a clear path forward. His scheduled race had come and gone, and the road back to peak performance seemed uncertain.

Through months of research, experimentation, and careful progression, Luke eventually returned to full strength. But he had to do it alone and was very lucky not to get reinjured along the way. His journey revealed a critical gap in runner rehabilitation—the bridge between recovery and return to performance. This experience sparked a mission: to create a comprehensive support system for injured runners, one that wouldn't just heal their injuries, but guide them back to peak performance with confidence.

Today, the Resilience Running Institute is that bridge. We combine clinical expertise with real-world running experience to support athletes through every stage of their comeback journey. Our methodology isn't just about getting you back on your feet—it's about making you stronger, more resilient, and better equipped to achieve your running goals. We take over where physical therapy leaves off, coaching you back to be faster and stronger than you were before. With a fully customer plan designed to fit your life, we give you the confidence and ability to run resiliently and avoid future injury.

Half of runners get injured each year. And if you’ve been injured before, you’re twice as likely to get reinjured within a year of your injury. Traditional rehabilitation is clearly not enough. We need better. Runners need more support to get and stay strong. The Resilience Running Institute is that support. Whether you’re coming off an injury or trying to avoid them, we’ll design a custom program for you to make you stronger and faster and help you have more fun out running. Become resilient and stay healthy with the help of RRI.
