Running is America's favorite outdoor sport. 51 million Americans ran in 2014 including 1 in 6 adults (33 million). Runners run 80 days per year, on average.
Competitive running is one of the most popular sports in America, with all-time record highs of 19 million runners finishing a running event in 2013. Since 1990, the number of U.S. race finishers has grown 300%.
Running inflicts a high injury rate on participants: studies estimate 30-50% of runners will lose workout time to an injury each year.
Jay Dicharry is a leading expert on biomechanics, physical therapy, and the neuromuscular connections that can improve running. His REP Lab is a destination for elite American runners and Dicharry regularly consults with top footwear companies, the U.S. Air Force, and USA Track and Field.
Dicharry's first book, Anatomy for Runners, has become a classic in the sport with over 20,000 copies sold over 5 years.
