Hot from the press and just published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine (online first), is our latest manuscript on prevention of running related injuries (RRIs) in Dutch trail-runners. This study evaluated the effectiveness of adding online tailored advice (TrailS6) to general advice on (1) the prevention of RRIs and (2) the determinants and actual preventive behaviour in Dutch trail runners.

In order to implement running to promote physical activity, it is essential to quantify the extent to which running improves health. Therefore, the aim of this review was to summarise the literature on the effects of endurance running on biomedical indices of health in physically inactive adults.

Despite several studies that have been conducted on running injuries, the risk factors for running-related injuries are still not clear and the literature seems unable to provide a clear answer. As such, the aim of this systematical review was to summarize the results of  prospective cohort studies that investigated the risk factors for running injuries in general.
