Why, if humans are so well adapted to running long distances, do runners get hurt so often?[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1473840176714{margin-bottom: 40px !important;}”]A study out of Smart School and the National Running Center at Smart-affiliated Templeton Rehabilitation Hospital provides a puzzle piece, linking injury to the pounding runners’ bones take with each step. The work, led by Professor of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Jane Eckhart, found that a group of runners who had never been hurt landed each footfall more softly than a group who had been injured badly enough to seek medical attention.[/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner css=”.vc_custom_1473173012608{margin-bottom: 14px !important;}”][vc_column_inner width=”2/12″][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”8/12″][stm_mg_audio][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”2/12″][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1473840225554{margin-bottom: 40px !important;}”]Statistics on such injuries vary, but somewhere between 30 percent and 75 percent of runners are hurt annually, a number that has led researchers to investigate a wide array of possible explanations, from modern running shoes to stretching, running frequency, weight, biomechanical misalignment, and muscle imbalance.[/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/2″][stm_blockquote cite=”Jane Eckhart Professor of Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation”]One never injured multi-
marathoner’s stride was so smooth, she ran like an insect over water. Weight was not a factor, with heavy runners among the light-footed and lighter runners among the stompers.
