Masters of Science - Msc (Physiotherapy) / Extrinsic factors like terrain, hard running surfaces or incorrect shoes
have been known to be contributing factors to injury, and intrinsic factors such as
poor flexibility, mal-alignment anthropometry, previous injury and running
experience have been identified in playing a role too. Little is known about the factors
associated with injuries among marathon runners in Eldoret, Kenya. It is therefore
important to identify the possible risk factors associated with running injuries in order
to prevent further injury and severe long-term complications
