Brief description of study

The purpose of this study is: 1) to determine the relationship between experiencing a future running related overuse injury and the physical activity you get outside of running and 2) to determine the volume of inactivity or rest between running bouts that may be protective against the development of experiencing a running related overuse injury.

Detailed description of study
