Overview of Running Injuries[edit | edit source]
Lower extremity running-related injuries range from 19.4 to 79.3 percent[1]. The most common injnuries are[2]:
- Patellofemoral pain
- Medial tibial stress syndrome (shin splints)
- Achilles tendinopathy
- Iliotibial band syndrome
- Plantar fasciitis
- Stress fractures of the metatarsals and tibia
Hamstrings and calf problems were reported by men marathon runners, while hip pain problems were common among women[3]. Most of these injuries have a high recurrence rates.
A 2015 systematic review[4] of 15 studies identified different risk factors for women and men:
| Women | Men | |
|---|---|---|
| Age | History of previous injury | |
| History of previous sports activity | Running experience for 2 years | |
| running on a concrete surface | History of previous injury | |
| Participating in a marathon | Average weekly running distance (20–29 miles) | |
| weekly running distance (30–39 miles) | ||
| wearing running shoes for 4 to 6 months |
