Abstract
Introduction: Running is a popular physical activity but associated with high rates of musculoskeletal injury. Running is perceived by some to be detrimental to joint health, yet it does not seem to increase the risk of knee or hip osteoarthritis (OA) or accelerate OA progression. Cartilage loss is the hallmark feature of OA and the impact of running on cartilage is not well understood. This study summarises the immediate impact of running on cartilage in healthy adults and those with, or at risk of OA, using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) measures.
