Abstract Summary
Women make up a large percentage of the running population, however research to understand benefits and risks of continuing to run into the silver years is limited. Our work suggests age-related changes in neuromuscular function and running mechanics are not the same for males and females and females may realize greater benefits of continuing to run. However, more knowledge is needed understand the biomechanical factors contributing to greater injury risks with age for female runners.
