TY - JOUR PY - 2018// TI - The relationship between injuries, shoes and style in the runner's population JO - Harefuah A1 - Shapira, Jacob A1 - Keren, Yaniv A1 - Rinott, Nadav A1 - Berkovich, Yaron SP - 99 EP - 103 VL - 157 IS - 2 N2 - INTRODUCTION: We are now standing four decades after the 'running revolution' which occurred during the 70's of the previous century. Despite the developments that have occurred in medicine and the large budgets invested in the development of the sport's equipment, the runner's morbidity has not changed. In this article, we would like to review the changes in running that occurred throughout the years, as well as the common risk factors for running injuries. Furthermore, we would like to examine the scientific point of view regarding running shoes and running technique as risk factors for running injuries. A new trend, the "minimalist running", characterized by a unique technique and rigid shod might be the "game changer" in diminishing the injury rates in runners. Note, that minimalist running is not yet a common technique and thus, we might encounter a new set of injuries which we still have to evaluate.
