The second course in this series outlines and further deepens the running analysis by using a running-specific movement analysis and physical examination. The focus will be on evaluating areas that have the greatest clinical impact on injury. A review of the specific biomechanics and movement demands of running, followed by the physical clinical examination and summarization of both the subjective and objective histories, are all key to this course.
