Running aches, pains, and injuries are all too common for those new to running, but even seasoned runners can wind up with injuries to the hips, knees, ankles, and feet. The impact and stress of running can be hard on the muscles and joints, particularly if running is your only sport.In this guide, you’ll find an overview of the five most common running injuries: IT band syndrome, plantar fasciitis, Achille’s heel issues, stress fractures, and runner’s knee.
You’ll also find our actionable tips to rehab them if you find yourself in the injured camp. Let’s get started! How To Avoid Common Running Injuries.Runner’s Knee/Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome (PFPS) There is a reason Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome is often called runner’s knee. Roughly 20 percent of running injuries are Runner’s knee, making it the most common injury in the running world.
The person will experience pain beneath the kneecap when running.About 80% of running injuries are due to overuse. 4 Most involve the knee, hamstring, tibia, ankle, or plantar fascia. 4 Common acute injuries include ankle sprains and hamstring strains.
Plantar Fasciitis is one of the most common culprits of heel pain in runners and amounts to roughly 10 percent of all running injuries.Common Running Injuries: Foot Pain Running puts extra stress on the foot’s 26 bones and 30 joints, so it is not unusual for overuse and traumatic injuries to occur. Below is a list of foot conditions commonly associated with running. People with flat feet or high arches and people who over-pronate tend to be at a higher risk for these injuries.Possible diagnosis: Plantar fasciitis.
This very common pain affects runners and non-runners, but it can be brought on or aggravated by a sudden increase in mileage or by wearing the wrong running.Most hamstring injuries associated with distance running are “overuse” injuries, meaning the muscle is irritated because it is too weak and is unable to tolerate the demand placed on it by running. A hamstring tear will feel like a sharp pain in the back of your thigh and you will be unable to sprint or push off the ground with that leg.
Plantar Fasciitis What it is: The most common foot injuries from running that we see involve over-doing it. Plantar fasciitis is an overuse injury characterized by micro-tearing of the connective tissue on the bottom of the foot. It’s caused by the repetitive impact of your foot on the ground.
Stress fractures are some of the most common injuries athletes face due to overuse. Increased frequency or intensity while running or doing other forms of cardio can cause these fractures, as can other stressors like hard surfaces, improper equipment and added stress on the bones.Common Running Injuries: Back Pain The pain of a stress fracture will gradually increase and become more pronounced. Pain is more noticeable during and after activity and less noticeable after sleeping, when the bone has had time to rest.
Pressing down on the skin over the hip may cause pain.This is one of the most common running injuries, especially for beginners who aren’t used to running, or for those recovering from an injury. The term refers to lower leg pain below the knee and is often a result of muscle overuse, wearing worn-out shoes or running on hard surfaces.
Common Running Injuries It’s logical to think that pounding your joints causes them to wear but actually the scientific evidence suggests this is not the case. There are plenty of long-term studies of runners to show that, as long as your joints are healthy to start with, running does not substantially increase the risk of developing arthritis.It may start as a mild ache that is only felt while running, but can progress to the point that it is felt even at rest. Why it happens: Patellofemoral pain syndrome is the most common injury experienced by runners, accounting for nearly 20% of all injuries.
Current research suggests that it comes from chronic stimulation on the pain nerves in.As well as pain, this kind of ankle injury can cause swelling and stiffness. Overpronation, weak calf muscles and a reduced range of upward flexion are among the most common causes, says Marconato.

Hello sir! I am running for the last 7 days and my legs hurt a lot. Starting with the shin pain but now it’s on the outside of the thigh, knee. I am not able to walk properly and I don’t even know what this is called. Please help me.
How I need to treat stress fracture cold compresses or hot.
I haven’t been running for to days. I’m afraid it’s gonna affect my stamina
Just do the exercise in Treat Your Own Achilles Tendinitis really works
All my teeth hurt after running but the dentist says my teeth are perfect? Anyone else get this???
Thanks for this insight, information provided changed lifetime of pain I experienced while jogging instantly. Stopped jogging on my toes, which I thought was the normal approach. Thank you.
Hey Nate.Im neutral footed but the new shoe (zante v3) I have causes me to overpronate A bit.Shoe review site says its because of the design.Does it have effect on the knees.?
do you have any recommended exercises for Meralgia paresthetica please?
great video! I recently started running and have come down with a knee injury, so have been left focusing on upper body exercises only. Hopefully it’ll heal again soon and i’ll be able to start my running sessions again!
Thanks for the tips, I’ve subscribed and I’ll be following along. Looking forward to more videos!
I had surgery for Haglund’s Deformity on the back of my left heel back in Sept 2019. I do Physical Therapy 3 days a week but no self massaging. As of the last couple of months, I have 2 sore areas on my Achilles tendon and 1 painful spot near the surgery scar. Your video reminded me to do more self massages into my Achilles area.
My right ankle is hurting every time I run, should I emphasis more mobility work or doing other exercises?
Awesome! I’ll add the kettle bell thing to my list. Another good simple one is wrapping the elastic resistance bands around both femurs and doing the reverse Thigh Master sort of workout. Attacks the glutes, which are also said to contribute to IT band syndrome, because the TFL is doing all the work, which yoinks on the band, due, to no help from the glutes. Hip dipping is another. I forgot about that. But when doing the resistance band method, lean forward over your knees to really FEEL that glute burn.
my favorite thing that has been helping with my knee pain has been wearing a CBD infused knee compression sleeve made by hemp symmetry…works great!
I use a Tumaz foot roller for my arch and plantar tendon. I had some tenderness for about three weeks. The Tumaz roller worked miracles
Where can I buy one of those cool foam rollers? LOVE your video! That’s definitely what I’m going to be doing now! But I need a foam roller!
I’m skeptical with those foam rollers, i bought one that was rock hard and made my it band problem worse,
Apparently you should never roll across bone (stop before the knee and before the hip bone on your way back up),
For me it’s reverse lunges and squats for the time being, next task is to buy one of those bands to go around your knees/ankles, strong butt = healthy butt:)
Thanks for this. I have used a foam roller and done this excercise and more and my ITB issues keep re-occuring. What am I missing? My physio recently observed that my adductors are short and tight, the same with my calf muscles so my range of motion is limited. I kind of understand but not sure how this is causing ITB. What do you recommend? I trail run alot and the issues seem to arise alot when running down hill.
Thanks for the informative video. I’ve watched many many videos on metatarsal nerve pain and think your tips have convinced me, it’s time to stop running in the minimalist shoes I’ve been running in for almost a decade. Thanks for the links to the insoles as well, very helpful, hadn’t been able to find these.
The main cause of my Achilles was my shoes. I used it to run 827 miles and it was so worn out on the outside of the shoes. I had the same Reebok you are wearing but in red color. I got Achilles after my 2nd full Ironman race. I have been side lined for more 3 months so far without noticing a progress that gives me confidence to run or bike again. I am seeing a friend physical therapist and doing a lot of stretches when I can.
you are totally right i have run for decades with no issues. i heard about this low heel drop stuff. it panicked me:i was being unnatural…went running minimal.Now sat here injured and sore
Pretty sure runners want to avoid all injuries, not just those in this video. But maybe that’s just me.
Hammered by IT band hip pain and I’ve had to refrain from exercise for a whole month. Great video exactly what I needed. Thanks!
My Achilles’ tendon is constantly giving me trouble. How often would you recommend stretching and strengthening exercises? Each week I run 15 to 20 miles, bike 50 to 60 mile and swim two hours. Thanks
My right achilles has been a little sore for the past few days. Perfect timing for this video! I appreciate the explanation of potential causes. Thanks for the video!
He chose a bridge which no male could possibly pass on it, Great informative video tho
I’m currently stuck in a 14 month long injury hell! My lower legs injuries have become chronic.
found this video after having some IT band issues during long runs. Very helpful, and boy does it hurt on the foam roller!
ah.. I transitioned to a more midfood strike from heelstriking while buying a more neutral flatter shoe.. and never took anything of my training. Feel like a proper dumbass.
East west roll is exactly what I needed to see. Muscle attached was very tight and releasing that really helped. Thanks.
Thank you for this video. I developed sudden knee/IT band pain one day while running. I did these exercises and was completely pain-free in 3 days.
Help! I tried a few exercises and it’s still hurting. I’m tired of not running. ☹️
Thanks for the hints and tips, just slightly increased my miles and today my Achilles is pulling. Will try all these thanks again!
So much more that can be done about running injuries its not just rest, ice and orthotics.
How about getting to the root cause of the problem? These measures suggested are treating the symptoms, not the cause.
Teach yourself how to mobilise your foot, learn how to move your body with Feldenkrais, and watch a few videos about technique so you can play with the elements whilst you run. Seek out expert advice on which conditioning drills are most appropriate for you. There are no recipes, we are all different shapes and sizes and require different combinations of muscles/fascia released and realigned.
This is exactly what I was looking for. Same cause same symptoms. Thank you for covering this!
Great advice and I can define recommend aftershockz. I love mine.
I like The Run Expereience videos. But the thing is that they’re not right this time. You can make it even worse with the lateral foam rolling. Here’s the right solution for it from Jeff Cavaliere (AthleanX):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1iODncOLJnk
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5YYb9vyj6zQ&t=135s
But this is the only wrong information i found in TRE videos so far.
So keep it up!
I am not a runner and I don`t even walk that much but I have has this problem for about 4 years now… Should I do these exercises or I need a deeper ones? How long should I do them? Thanks!
Thanks for analysis Nate. Loved it as always! Would like to know whether you have covered any episode on types of shoes to wear and their advantages / dis advantages. I am keen to know which shoes are good for functional training and marathon.
IT Band. Got that bastard. Flaming irritating. Thanks for the vid! Good work.
So how do you not push off the ground with interior pelvic tilt?
Loved the video. Thank you. I ran a half marathon over the weekend and in mile two I felt that…… did a rock just hit my ankle feeling. Now I’m a basketball player and know several dudes who went down like that and it was a six month return if at all. So I knew what happened to me wasn’t a torn one. Nonetheless I finished the race never bothered me. But the next few days it’s been sore for sure.
I think this video will help me recover. Does my situation sound familiar?
3 weeks out from my marathon and my Achilles is acting up BIG TIME. I’m freaking out.
Would you take time off if it’s not that bad? Like doesn’t hurt in the morning, only right after running.
Mine hurts from working all day and then going to skate for a few hours afterwards. Went from solid cupsole shoes to thinner vulc shoes. Im ready to skate injuries suck! Hope everyone feels better!
Why give the suggestion to ice everything? You do realize icing only prolongs most injuries right? It takes down the swelling so now the body has no defense mechanism to protect the actual injury.
Good video but not a fan of how they keep saying to take anti-inflammatories
People always say that most injuries can be resolved by using a foam roller and strengthening the area. I have only found temporary relief from foam rolling. And I think that strengthening is a good idea in order to prevent injuries, but often the cause of running injuries is neuromuscular patterning. So strengthening can be beneficial, as long as you are biomechanically neutral. If you are not biomechanically neutral, you will continue to strengthen a faulty neuromuscular pattern. If you are interested in this, please check out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gtbM1y0T7SQ&t=301s
Thanks for the advice Nate! I’m currently training for my first half in two weeks time but nursing a sore right Achilles. So I’m doing most of my training on the spinning bike and cross trainer plus weight training. Also, icing, foam roller and stretching everyday. Fingers crossed I’ll be good in two weeks!!
I have semi-flat feet AND I went from heel strike to front-foot AND!! from regular shoes to barefoot shoes AND!!!!!! from no running to running 7k on my first day!!!!!!!! Lmaooo
You can already guess what my Achilles is like now �� ����
��������������������
This happened to me today and my confidence is completely shot I’m now scared to run anymore my stamina is good my distance was getting longer and now I gotta stop running to heal and I’m not sure if I’m gonna run anymore cause I’m scared to get injured now hopefully I can make myself run again
Great information ��! What can you speak on about outside shin pain? Under my right knee ( which had acl& mcl surgery a year ago ), on the outside of the shin, rolling pains have happened more than I want to admit. Surgery related, form related, roller repairable? Thanks ��
Does the Achilles get tighter the faster u run or is it more of a distance thing?
I haven’t injured myself but I am concerned as I can feel it getting tighter lately.
I’ve been working on my glutes and have kept my runs short but my knee continues to hurt towards the end of my runs. What should I do now?
thank you guys for all the videos you put out. Every time i see a video, i learn something good or pick up a trick that I haven’t tried. I appreciate your content and i see a lot of value on this channel.
If you’re getting calf pain when running, try these videos to figure out how to address your issues https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7BJ0ZYUYIqU&list=PLKcBI9vYDGiSXxHxg7LIwTa9fXLmkEd5S
Interesting exercise! Would you recommend trying this on off running days (e.g. leg day only) or something to incorporate pre/post run? Thanks!
What do you tell trainers who say that foam rolling is the wrong thing to do for IT band tightness/pain? I know from experience that foam rolling helps a LOT (as soon as I discovered it my knee pain and physio visits went from weekly to ZERO) but wanna know why/how some ‘fitness professionals’ feel justified in bagging it.
I went from Hokas to Altra zero drops and increased miles lol this makes a lot of sense. thanks. Hopefully won’t have to wait too long before I can start running again.
As always, thanks for those tips. I’ve had some of those pains-to-injuries in the past, and am currently having heal pain. So your tips have always helped, and no doubt will continue to do so.
Awesome video bro! Definitely the channel for people who love running and everything related to it.
Just found this channel. The host is very good at explaining things.
If you have any of these injuries, should you stop training completely or do you reduce the intensity while working on the strength and mobility exercises?
Ok so it hurts on the backside of my hip between my hip and butt and I think it’s this??? I’m a highschool cross country runner
Awesome as per usual!! Like in blind. 1) all SF related 2)injury treatment/prevention!! Thank you TRE Team!!
Hip position for leg pull through: what are some exercises/protocols for keeping a strong hip position while running? Particularly late in a marathon or ultramarathon, we tend to go to “the ultra shuffle” or the “survival stride” as we used to call it. I’m guessing the “ultra shuffle” begins to put more strain on the calf/achilles…so how do you work to maintain alignment with the hips? Here’s what I do: Core work, hip mobility, postural alignment while running, focus on hips and alignment in long runs, glute medius strength, couch stretch (thanks, Run Experience!), anything else?
Envy the background view Coach Nate. A fan of ‘Run Experience’ from Thailand.
I’m having issues with my piriformis and hamstring on the left side, I stretch and foam roll, any suggestions or videos on this area?
Thanks for this video. Achilles problems took me out of running last year for about 8 months. I had changed my style of running to toe running which was wrong for me. It turns out that I had had a tear. I could not even go out cycling for the pain, but my stationary bike indeed saved and kept up my fitness. Now I use rollers, balls and ice to help as well as massage.
What about shin splints? any lateral movement strength workouts?
Thank you. #2 is the cause of some tenderness in my Achilles. Trying to run with the right forward leaning posture is the culprit.
I just injured my achilles. I was running in 10mm drop shoes (Brooks Glycerin 14) then went to 4mm drop (Saucony Freedom Iso). The Freedom Iso’s are so much lighter and are so much more snappier and let me have a much faster stride but do not have a proper achilles support or hold…so I came back to the Brooks today and I am doing all the exercises you just showed and massaging with Arnica. I am also gonna be training in a track instead of concrete for some time. Thanks for this video, it hit all the right points.
Great video. I’m new to running and have been experiencing ankle pain. I was running with 3-year-old shoes… I wonder if that’s why? Lol
1:28 IT Band
6:12 Plantar Fasciitis
10:00 Achilles Issues
13:26 Stress Fractures
15:44 Runners Knee
Going to try this out tonight. My IT band has deemed it to where I cannot run more than 3 miles. I got up to a distance of 10 miles, and then all of a sudden on a 12 mile training run, 3.5 miles in, I could barely bend my knee.
Hey guys! Hope you’re liking this video on IT Band pain… it’s such a common problem! Highly recommend the 15 minutes of mobility… we talk a lot more about it in our Injury Prevention program. Check out our free injury training video and the pre-injured test here: http://tretips.com/injury
Hello, I need your help please. I am getting intense pain (when I press down with my fingers) on the inner side of my left leg, about 6 inches above my heel. The pain aggravates when I run. Now, even when I walk, I experience pain in that region.Can you please guide me on what the problem could be and which exercises can help me recover and prevent? I have flat feet (fallen arches) right since my birth.
Lots of helpful information. Personally I’d like it more condensed. A five min video is plenty long enough.
Great video, discussing some of the problems I have had and still have and I think that most runners experience these at some point. I know now that preventative is the best way to go, do these exercises even if you don’t feel the pain or discomfort, because when you feel that pain it is too late, then it is time to rest for a while. Strength training for those muscles in the legs is also super important. Thank you for the great advice TRE team.
Most amatuer runners get injured due to bad form or body weakness. Body weakness also leads to bad form. Runners should do strength exercises 2-3 times a week. Don’t run faster or longer than body can handle and stretch after each workout. 3 hrs of strength training a week fixed my injuries. When injured use a bike to keep aerobic fitness due to very low impact on joints.
I have had tendonitis for over 6 months and it’s not going away. I do the cross fiber massage, doing some eccentric heel drops now with some foam rolling as well. In the past 6 months I’ve done about every stretch imaginable (never over doing it though). Other than pain in the morning (3 out of 10 on the pain scale maybe) there really isn’t much pain. IF I do start to feel pain I can always foam roll it away. BUT it always comes back and always is tight in the morning. I have not ran but I’ve heard about relative rest where you start doing some light running to loosen it up more (no hills and at a slow pace, not far) and make sure do do light stretching before and after as well as ice after. Thoughts and other ideas?
Thanks!
If someone were to watch only one running video this should be it.
So confused about the conflicting information on YouTube and online, it seems a 50/50 split between foam rolling the it band and those that say you shouldn’t. I just want to find something that works so I can get back running!!
VIDEO IDEA: Hi, Im a proud subscriber of you guys, a sub 36min 10,000m PR and I’m also currently struggling with something called “Osgood schlatter disease” and I was wonder if maybe you could make a video about this problem, and how to achieve the fastest possible recovery? Thanks!
Proud subscriber,
Josh.
You are so helpful, I saw you on a inspiration for running video, I’m still figuring out who you are
sounds like good advice! I was trail running on trail shoes and running the street with my inserts (arch supported), running shoes. Then, i took my inserts out of my street shoes to be more like my trail shoes (no inserts) and run a Half marathon. That was a big mistake! I quickly aquired very sore and tight Achilles. A week later I have a 50% tear in my Achilles! DOWN, but not out! Maryland
GREAT video You guys are the premier educational YouTube and Website to follow. Your hard work has paid off by helping runners of all experience and age group. Congratulations and keep it up the good work.
Thanks Coach Nate, once again you have posted a video on stretching right when I needed it. Can you share the specs of the orange foam roller? I need one. Thanks!
As with most of my minor aches, pains, and injuries that are due to running, I can always count on you guys for tips. You’re my go-to when I need advice.
My achilles started to bother me to the point that it hurts to walk. This advice really helped!
Eccentric dips (toe dips on a stair edge) worked wonders for me.
Great information Nate and will certainly help me explain so much easier at my coaching sessions. Don’t forget to undo your laces when you take off your shoes.

I suffered a knee injury a couple weeks ago and haven’t been able to run since. Its been such a bummer. I thought I was suffering from Runner’s Knee, but after doing more research I came across the IT Band issue in relation to knee pain, which led to me to foam rolling so I figured I’d give it a shot. I picked up a foam roller on amazon and watched your video for instructions on how to use it… WOW did that hurt. I didn’t realize how tight my IT band was, I definitely had a few tight areas on each leg. After 3 minutes on each leg, my knee pain virtually disappeared. I figure I’m at 60% now… another week of staying off running and rehabbing this and I’m hoping to be 100%. Thanks for the video, it was a life saver!
The analysis on the hip position makes sense, I didn’t find it in other similar videos. Thanks for the useful hints!
Great information. I made my achilles angry last night. Now I know why!
Can you do cross-training to keep healthy due to an injury and cover the same distance (e.g. 13 mi.) after the rest period?
https://youtu.be/WqWNfs45lr0
Make your upper body strong at home…����������������������������
I appreciate the careful, thorough input about why/how this takes place…..I have a foot that is about 30% weaker than the other one. Guess which one has the Achilles problem? And I’m not a runner just a walker.
Oof I ran two uphill workouts and now my kneecap hurrtttssss
Ice, roll out, elevate. Ice roll out elevate. This will be my hourly routine for today �� thanks for a great video ✌��
I don’t know if it’s my headphones or the audio, but sometimes your voice just cuts off for a short time
im always, always getting them with hill sprints… pretty much guaranteed. and its absolutely always the left.
I purchased a foam roller but think I’ve benefitted the most by doing half hour yoga sessions a few times a week.
I’ve got lacrosse balls all over the house, but that coffee mug idea was real value add.
Great video!! I like the fact that you describe how it can happen, by ones running form or what shoe height your running in can cause this. ( less supportive shoe got me ) Bonus how you can treat it as well.. Thanks Guys!!
I’ve got IT band pain but at the iliac Crest level, tried foam rolling but the pain is still there, only anti inflammation drugs does the trick, I’m trying to strengthen my hip flexors and see how it reacts.
how does the videos come appropriately when I’m going through these issues!? Love the content!
The toe thing makes soo much sense! I always have to take an extra rest day after hill work. I think I’m leaning into the hill too much. Thank you so much!!!
Plantar fasciites on both feet here. Thanks for the tips! I’m trying to start running and this channel is really helpful
Thank you!! I have a half marathon sunday and my last run left me with pain in my heal, which i thought was achilles but it wasnt, i massaged my foot with a ball and the pain is gone! Yay!
This was such an amazingly helpful, clear and comprehensive video. I am really impressed
Can you have a peroneal injury without swelling or bruising while maintaining full mobility (move it side to side or in circles) without pain?
thanks for the video buddy, I’ve had achillies problems but back running now, abit cranky and creaky but hopefully this will sort it.
Does a pulled Achilles have a burning pain above the heel? Because that’s what I had and I was playing basketball with Roshe Tanjuns and then it just hit me
Hi Guys,
I’ve got IT band pain for the last couple of months! I’m still running sometimes pain disappeared and the day after back to pain.. Grrrr
Would you suggest foam roller just after running or at anytime during the day? Thank you for your tips! I like your content on your videos **����������
Stress fracture in the Femur??? I think he meant to say Tibia. A femur stress fracture would be insane
Love the channel! If you don’t have access to a kennel ball, could you use a dumbbell instead?
plantar fasciitis on the left, IT band & Achilles pain on the right. FML.
Would weekly sport massage can replace the roller & most of these exercises?
Hey, how do you cure bursities of heel. It hurts and I can’t run happily:(
It’s been 7 weeks now haven’t been able to barely walk let alone cardio the Achilles is so frustrating
IT band treatment: so the ballerina pose on the floor and spread those legs. You’re welcome
I wish I saw this before the complete tear of my Achilles,,, thank you though:)
If I am using a stick roller how do I go about rolling it east to west? Do I just apply the pressure and not necessarily focus on the actual rolling part?
Can it band issues be the cause of my crappy hip pain? I cannot figure out what is happening….I dont run tho…
Great video. Didn’t know about quad tightness being linked to runners knee. Damn. Mans on top of his game
thanks for the injury prevention tips! I did the towel pulls in recovery for shin splints, and I was told to put a light dumbbell at the edge of the towel and after each pull to flex my toes up and out.
My son just started cross country and has been having IT band pain. Is it wise to just run through it, or should he be taking some days to rest? Also, where can I find a foam roller like the one in the video? Thanks!
Great video! Thanks for this. Have you ever heard of stress fractures occurring from stepping on a larger rock with the outside of the foot where the foot just rolls over it and bends in a way it’s not supposed to?
So glad I found your videos! Just getting into running and your videos are soooo informative and helpful! Thank you so much!
One thing that has helped me w/ fasciitis is balancing not only on my feet but also on my toes. I do series of 6 on each foot, holding it for 5 seconds each time. What do you think about this?
When I run, literally as soon as I start, my ankles start to seize up, they get very painful, then the pain radiates up my shins. My ankles basically go numb and I end up stomping. It hurts SO incredibly much! I’m 18, and not sporty, but slim. I thought it was shin splints, but apparently only athletic people get that!:) Any ideas of what is wrong with meeeee?
Got back from my 4 mile run about 30 mins ago. Personal best of 35 mins 38 seconds. Training for a half marathon on the 15th september loving running so far only started in February. Love the helpful advice in these videos. Thank you ��
