To investigate the incidence and type of running related injuries in novice and recreational UK runners, and identify factors associated with injury.
Retrospective cross-sectional study.
Novice and recreational runners were recruited through UK parkrun to complete a web-based survey. 1145 respondents reported information on demographics, personal characteristics, and running training characteristics (training goal, novice runners' training plans, frequency of running, running experience, running terrain). Current and previous injuries were self-reported and questions from the Oslo Sports Trauma Centre Questionnaire for overuse injury were completed. Chi-squared tests and binomial logistic regression were performed.
570 runners had a current injury and 86% were continuing to run despite their injury causing pain, directly affecting their performance and causing a reduction of running volume. In the first year of running, runners using a self-devised training programme were more likely to be injured compared with using a structured programme such as Couch to 5K. Running experience of over 2 years was protective (OR 0.578-0.65). Males were 1.45 times more likely to be injured. Other factors associated with current injury were wearing orthotics (OR 1.88), and lack of previous injuries in the past 12 months (OR 1.44).
More experienced runners have a lower rate of injury. A novice runner should use a recognised structured training programme. These results suggest that graduated loading is important for novice runners, and that load modification may be important whilst recovering from an injury, however full recovery from previous injury may prevent future injury.
调查英国新手和休闲跑者跑步相关损伤的发生率和类型，并确定与损伤相关的因素。
回顾性横断面研究。
通过英国 parkrun 招募新手和休闲跑者，让他们完成在线调查。1145 名受访者报告了人口统计学、个人特征和跑步训练特征（训练目标、新手跑者的训练计划、跑步频率、跑步经验、跑步地形）方面的信息。当前和以前的损伤均由自我报告，还完成了奥斯陆运动创伤中心过度使用损伤问卷的问题。进行了卡方检验和二项逻辑回归。
570 名跑者有当前损伤，86%的人仍在继续跑步，尽管他们的损伤导致疼痛，直接影响他们的表现，并减少了跑步量。在跑步的第一年，与使用结构化计划（如 Couch to 5K）相比，使用自行设计训练计划的跑者更容易受伤。超过 2 年的跑步经验具有保护作用（OR 0.578-0.65）。男性受伤的可能性是女性的 1.45 倍。与当前损伤相关的其他因素包括使用矫形器（OR 1.88）和过去 12 个月没有以前的损伤（OR 1.44）。
经验更丰富的跑者受伤率较低。新手跑者应使用公认的结构化训练计划。这些结果表明，逐渐增加负荷对新手跑者很重要，在从损伤中恢复时，负荷调整可能很重要，但从以前的损伤中完全恢复可能会防止未来的损伤。
