The Effectiveness of a Running-related Injury Prevention Program in Runners

"The intervention will be delivered online. Every two weeks we will send a link to participants that will direct them to an online questionnaire. The online questionnaire will collect information on complaints and symptoms related to running, and the volume, intensity and frequency of running practice within the 2-week period. If the participant reports any symptom and if she/he accepts a suggestion regarding running training, an algorithm embedded in the online system will automatically suggest a training volume for the next two weeks based on the distance and/or duration reported by the participant.~Through a website we will make available informative texts, videos and infographics in order to increase the participant's knowledge regarding topics such as: musculoskeletal symptoms; foot strike patterns; training workload; running shoes; warming-up/cooling-down, stretching; and concomitant strength training."
