novice runners
Information about participation in the project was distributed through newspapers and posters. People interested in participation signed up by completing an online questionnaire, which contained questions regarding health, previous injuries, and participation in sports. Based on an initial screening of the questionnaires, eligible participants were contacted by phone and given verbal information about the study. Individuals between 18 and 65 years of age, who had not experienced injuries in the lower extremity in the 3 months prior to signing up and had not been running more than a total of 10 km in the previous 12 months, were eligible for inclusion.
