Prevention of Running Injuries

It is believed that 25% of running injuries are preventable. Steps that can be taken include

  • Proper rehabilitation of a previous injury. (50% of running injuries are a re-occurrence of an old injury)
  • Wear appropriate shoes and change them regularly. (Different shoes are designed to accommodate your individual foot mechanics and last approximately 500 kilometers)
  • Avoid overuse problems. (50-65% of injuries are attributed to training errors)

1.    Too much (what is your present fitness level capable of)

2.    Too soon (only increase your weekly miles and long run distance by 10%)

3.    Too often (the number of consecutive days correspond to the likelihood of injury; rest days allow your body to repair itself)

4.    Too fast (run your recovery runs and low slow distance runs slow)
