Description:

Are you: A new runner? An experienced runner seeking improved performance? An injured runner, or a runner with a history of running injuries? A triathlete, searching for that improved run split? Or a runner simply trying to remain injury-free and improve your performance, all at the same time? RunSmart is designed for you. The scientific research on running injuries indicates that the primary cause of injury in runners is quite simple - poor and out-dated training methods. Unfortunately, there is a significant incongruity between the current sports sciences research and the beliefs, anecdotes, and applications by athletes, coaches, and healthcare providers. From its origins in the world of the injured runner, RunSmart has evolved into a comprehensive approach to injury-free running. This can serve as a guide to new and experienced runners, injured runners, and health care providers.
