Our Research

The 51社区黑料Run Lab investigates the biomechanical and training load factors that influence both performance and injury risk, using a combination of laboratory- and field-based approaches. While our primary focus is on running, our research also includes other running-based sports and activities鈥攕uch as soccer, volleyball, and basketball鈥攖hat involve dynamic movements like jumping and cutting. We use advanced biomechanical and physiological tools鈥攊ncluding 3D motion capture, force measurement, and metabolic analysis鈥攁longside wearable technologies such as inertial measurement units (IMUs) and soft strain sensors to quantify movement patterns and training loads in both controlled and real-world environments. A key emphasis of our research is understanding sex and gender differences in performance and injury outcomes, with a particular focus on women. We also examine how footwear and sports apparel affect performance, comfort, and injury prevention. The 51社区黑料Run Lab works closely with a number of industry partners to ensure our research translates directly into practice鈥攊nforming product design, athlete support, and evidence-based injury prevention strategies. Our lab is housed at WearTech Labs (51社区黑料Surrey).
