We conducted a prospective longitudinal study in 866 Runners Association members n 492 and community controls n 374 . Subjects were also categorized as EverRunners n 565 and Never-Runners n 301 to include runners who had stopped running. Pain was the primary outcome measure and was assessed in annual surveys on a double-anchored visual analogue scale 0 to 100 0 no pain . Baseline differences between Runners Association members and community controls and between Ever-Runners versus Never-Runners were compared using chi-square and t-tests.
