What are the main running-related musculoskeletal injuries? A systematic review

TLDR
This systematic review provides evidence that medial tibia stress syndrome, Achilles tend inopathy and plantar fasciitis were the main general RRMIs, while Achilles tendinopathy and patellofemoral syndrome were the most common RRMis for runners who participated in ultra-marathon races.

Heavy Slow Resistance Versus Eccentric Training as Treatment for Achilles Tendinopathy: A Randomized Controlled Trial

TL;DR: It is shown that both traditional ECC and HSR yield positive, equally good, lasting clinical results in patients with Achilles tendinopathy and that the latter tends to be associated with greater patient satisfaction after 12 weeks but not after 52 weeks.

Incidence of Running-Related Injuries Per 1000 h of running in Different Types of Runners: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

TL;DR: Novice runners seem to face a significantly greater risk of injury per 1000 h of running than recreational runners.

Greater vertical impact loading in female runners with medically diagnosed injuries: a prospective investigation

TL;DR: In this article, a gait analysis was performed on 249 female runners to determine whether runners with high impacts are at greater risk for developing medically diagnosed injuries, and the results showed that impact loading was associated with bony and soft-tissue injuries.
Journal ArticleDOI

What are the Main Risk Factors for Running-Related Injuries?

TL;DR: The main risk factor identified in this review was previous injury in the last 12 months, although many risk factors had been investigated in the literature, and a great heterogeneity of statistical methods between studies prevented a meta-analysis.

A retrospective case-control analysis of 2002 running injuries

TL;DR: Various risk factors were shown to be positively associated with a risk for, or protection from, specific injuries, and future research should include a non-injured control group and a more precise measure of weekly running distance and running experience to validate these results.

Consensus statement on injury definitions and data collection procedures in studies of football (soccer) injuries

TL;DR: Recommendations are made on how the incidence of match and training injuries should be reported and a checklist of issues and information that should be included in published reports of studies of football injuries is presented.

Foot strike patterns and collision forces in habitually barefoot versus shod runners

TL;DR: Kinematic and kinetic analyses show that even on hard surfaces, barefoot runners who fore-foot strike generate smaller collision forces than shod rear-foot strikers, and this difference results primarily from a more plantarflexed foot at landing and more ankle compliance during impact, decreasing the effective mass of the body that collides with the ground.

Incidence and determinants of lower extremity running injuries in long distance runners: A systematic review

TL;DR: There was strong evidence that a long training distance per week in male runners and a history of previous injuries were risk factors for injuries, and that an increase in trainingdistance per week was a protective factor for knee injuries.

Injuries to runners.

TL;DR: A knowledge of the relative incidence, treatment and results of treatment of injuries to runners should provide a basis for better management and a probable basis for increased utilization of preventive measures and earlier recognition and treatment of these injuries.
