With more running shoe options available than ever, how do you know what shoe is best for you? Whether selecting shoes for training or racing, on road or on trail, Dr. JJ Hannigan, an assistant professor in the Doctor of Physical Therapy program and director of the FORCE biomechanics lab at OSU-Cascades, breaks down the latest science on how footwear affects running biomechanics and injury risk. Backed by research from the OSU-Cascades FORCE Lab, this talk reveals how the right shoes can help runners stay healthy and prevent injury.
