Brief Summary:
this study will investigate the structure of the Achilles tendon and functional tests in road runners compared to treadmill runners
Detailed Description:
Healthy runners road and treadmill runners who run regularly at least twice a week for half an hour over 80 of the training on the treadmill or road will be recruited for the study
All subjects will fill out a demographic questionnaire for personal details age sex height weight past injuries training Each participant will undergo functional tests in random order 1 Examination of the morphology of the Achilles tendon - will be examined by ultrasound tissue characterized UTC 2 Balance test - Y Balance Test 3 Proprioception test - AMEDA device 4 Muscle strength test - manual dynamometer for testing gastrocnemius muscle strength 5 Gastrocnemius muscle endurance test - single leg heel raise test until fatigue
A comparison will be made between the two study groups
