  • Understand the biomechanics of running and specificities of different running techniques
  • Understand the links between anatomy, biomechanics, strength and pathologies
  • Understand the different categories of running footwear
  • Prescribe the most appropriate running shoes depending on the runner
  • Assess running biomechanics in a clinical setting
  • Apply the most efficient running gait retraining interventions
  • Select the appropriate treatment tool based on the stage of injury (protection vs. adaptation)
  • Learn how to apply the proper mechanical stress quantification to injured runners
  • Know when to prescribe stretching exercises
  • Decide on whether to recommend plantar orthoses or not for specific injuries
