Prevention and Management of Running-Related Injuries in Ultrarunners - Theme Table

Three overarching themes emerged from the data which reflected strategies used by participants to prevent and manage injuries during their ultrarunning participation: Listen to Your Body, Back on Track, and Mental Toughness. These three theme tables describe the over-arching themes, core categories, and sub-categories and provide sample quotations for findings from the qualitative data analysis. The first over-arching theme is Listen to Your Body, corresponds with RRI prevention strategies and resources, and the second over-arching theme is Back on Track and corresponds with RRI management strategies and resources. The third theme is Mental Toughness, which corresponds with the behavioral and psychological aspects of ultrarunning participation.
