This activity aims to increase the understanding of ITBS to runners in order to minimize the occurrence of injuries and to treat ITBS injuries. This activity focuses on providing education and counseling about ITBS injuries, the material presented includes definitions, etiology, symptoms, prevention, and management of ITBS injuries. Evaluation by being given a questionnaire before and after the delivery of the material. Based on the results of the evaluation carried out by the participants, it was found that many participants were able to answer the questions correctly, it can be concluded that the participants had understood the material regarding ITBS injuries.
