RunHealthy.org - The online home of the AMSSM Runner Health Consortium

The mission of the Runner Health Consortium is to improve the health of runners and para athletes by holistically assessing health problems within this population and identifying factors contributing to injury, including training patterns. We aim to accomplish this by engaging the running community, sports medicine clinicians, and researchers, and leveraging commonly used training-monitoring technology.
