Trajectory of knee health in runners
TRAIL is a research study designed by runners for runners. This study is being conducted to explore the impact of running on knee joint health in people with and without a history of knee surgery.
Specifically, the study will establish the relationship between running biomechanics, running loads (e.g. frequency, duration, speed) and muscle strength, and changes in knee joint health on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and knee symptoms over a two-year period.
