“…It was suggested that running shoes, running surfaces and the running technique could be one of the reasons for running injuries (Taunton et al, 2002;Stefanyshyn et al, 2006;Milner et al, 2006;Cheung et al, 2006). Therefore, several authors systematically changed the technique of locomotion (Cavanagh and Williams, 1982;McMahon et al, 1987;Arendse et al, 2004), the external conditions, e.g., stiffness of the surface (McMahon and Greene, 1979;Ferris et al, 1998;Kerdok et al, 2002;Karamanidis et al, 2006), or the construction of running shoes McNair and Marshall, 1994;Bergmann et al, 1995;Stacoff et al, 2001;Kersting and Brüggemann, 2006) to examine how these specific modifications affect the kinetics and kinematics while running. An important topic in gait analysis is load management, distribution and redistribution within the locomotor system (DeVita and Hortobagyi, 2000;Andriacchi et al, 2004;Mündermann et al, 2004Mündermann et al, , 2005Hunt et al, 2006;Jenkyn et al, 2008;Kemp et al, 2008).…”
