“Common Questions
Q.What should I avoid saying in a get well card for a runner?
Avoid phrases that pressure them to rush back, like 'Get back out there soon!' or downplay their injury. Focus on empathy for their frustration and support for a full, proper recovery.

Absolutely. Acknowledging their passion shows you understand what they're missing. Use running metaphors for healing ('marathon of recovery') or express eagerness for their return to the sport they love.

Yes. For a dedicated runner, any setback can be emotionally challenging. A card shows you recognize the importance of their routine and care about their wellbeing, no matter the scale of the issue.
