Born to Run 5 | The Epidemiology of Running Injuries

This series has a criminally low number of views. Absolutely superb.

Chronic injuries can stem from acute injuries like knee pain that happens at a moment and becomes chronic with frequent recurrences over years but is not constant over the years. Like people with back problems, they can remember the very moment the first instance happened but it comes and goes for decades after that or even for the rest of their lives. Ive had literally every injury mentioned at 2:00 except I have not had a hamstring tear. All just in the last 5 years. I even have pain in the two "red spots" that he did not name (inside elbow) arthritis perhaps and (shoulder) triceps tendonitis. I guess you could say I lie in the middle now between novice and ultra but even now if I try a new training exercise I seem to cause inflammation in the tendon that's connected to that newly used muscle. And it's because of age because I use to be able to do anything without injury but not so much now . . . I just got a new injury last week of one or both of my peroneus tendons but I think it's already healed. This is very true what is being read starting at 10:37. I dont know why but my muscles are a lot stronger that the tissue connecting them to my skeleton. I wonder WHY that is.
