[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is so easy to get injured while running. If you are really committed to it and really focus on safety you can hopefully avoid injury. Though for me I have found that I had to do a fair amount of resistance training before I could run without developing tendonitis. If you don't even like running there are so many other ways to get cardio that have much lower injury rates.[/quote]

It’s easy if you do too much at once. I’ve been running consistently for years and have never injured myself bc I follow a plan and get new shoes when I’m supposed to. [/quote]

Good for you! But large percentages of runners get injured every year, and so as I said while it certainly possible to run safely, many people do not. Why demand that people engage in a sport that is statistically likely to get them injured and that they have already said they don't enjoy?[/quote]

DP - Large percentages of crossfitters/bikers/adult sports players get injured. Running is no more dangerous than many other cardio activities. If you don't want to run, fine! That's your prerogative, but it's not particularly dangerous when not pushing too hard to fast.

It's me again:

I mean it's just not true that all types of cardio carry the same risks. You can pretty much get injured doing anything, but the rates and severity of injuries vary greatly among different types of activities.

But I applaud you for finding an excuse to share your data with us. [/quote]
