I give a presentation every year to a local running group on injury prevention and treatment related to running injuries.  The group is participating in a running program to prepare for the Victoria Times Colonist 10 Km run.

In this presentation I will address why the pelvis is important and how muscle imbalances around the pelvis contribute to common running disorders such as iliotibial band syndrom (ITBS), plantar fascitis, and achilles tendon problems. 

You will also be introduced to inner core versus the outer core.  I was introduced to this concept by Diane Lee (http://dianelee.ca/).

 You can find the presentation posted under the video section titled “Smooth Sailing: A Rendition on Running Related Injuries”.
