Possible to Run 100 Miles After Lumbar Fusion Surgery?

Most people think of lumbar fusion surgery as mobility limiting procedures. Although it's true, lumbar fusions are designed to stop the motion of at least two vertebrae, they can also restore your spine in incredible ways.

I’m super proud of Betsy Nye, and my whole team who helped her get back to elite performance. Betsy just came in 10th place for females at the Hardrock 100 mile ultramarathon after healing from a L4-5 XLIF spinal fusion.
