【 摘 要 】

Runners sustain high injury rates. As greater numbers of individuals continue to run past the age of 60, normal physiological changes that occur with aging may further contribute to injuries. Male and female runners demonstrate different mechanics and injury rates. However, whether these mechanics further diverge as runners age and whether or not this potential divergence in mechanics may or may not be associated with a potential for increased injury risk is unknown.
