This study investigates the connection between future running-related overuse injuries and the amount of physical activity done outside of running. It also looks at how much rest between running sessions might help prevent these injuries. Running-related overuse injuries are injuries that happen when the muscles, bones, or joints are used too much without enough rest.
Participants in the study will be asked to track their running and non-running activities. They will also need to record periods of rest between their running sessions. This information will help researchers understand what activity levels and rest periods might protect against injuries.
- Who can participate: Adults who have been running consistently for at least 10 miles per week over the past two years and have continued this routine for the last month can participate. Individuals with recent injuries, surgeries, or certain medical conditions are not eligible.
- Study details: Participants will log their physical activities and rest periods to help researchers study injury prevention.
