Background: Running biomechanics may play a role in running-related injury development,
but to date, only a few modifiable factors have been prospectively associated with injury risk …

Context: A high number of recreational runners sustain a running-related injury each year.
To reduce injury risk, alterations in running form have been suggested. One simple strategy …

The etiology of runningrelated injury is important to consider as the effectiveness of a given
runningrelated injury prevention intervention is dependent on whether etiologic factors are …

Background: To identify persons at high risk of sustaining running-related injuries, an
evidence-based understanding of the risk factors associated with injury is needed. Purpose …

Purpose Increased running experience and more time spent running appears to be
advantageous in reducing injury risk, although the reason behind this is unclear. It is …

Background The role of biomechanical variables of running gait in the development of
running related injury has not been clearly elucidated. Several systematic reviews have …

Excessive vertical ground reaction force (VGRF) loadrates have been linked with running
injuries. Increasing cadence (CAD) has been shown to reduce loadrates; however …

Some of the earliest biomechanics research focused on running and the ground reaction
forces generated with each step. Research in running gait accelerated in the 1970's as the …

INTRODUCTION: Running with a forefoot strike (FFS) pattern has been suggested to reduce
the risk of overuse running injuries, due to a reduced vertical loadrate compared with …

OBJECTIVES: This prospective study examined differences in kinetic variables between
injured and noninjured novice female and male runners and their potential contribution to …
