About this Event

Speaker #1: DR. FOO GEN LIN

Common Running Knee Injuries & Treatment Options

This talk covers the most common knee injuries in runners, such as “runner’s knee,” iliotibial band issues, and tendon problems. We’ll look at why they happen, how to recognise the signs early, and what you can do to recover. Practical strategies for rehab, training adjustments, and prevention will be shared so you can keep running stronger and longer, with less risk of setbacks.


Speaker #2: DR. YANG YIFAN

Strength Training for Runners – Improving Performance and Preventing Injuries

This talk highlights the importance of strength training for distance runners in enhancing performance and reducing the risk of injuries. It will also cover the fundamental components of an effective strength training programme for runners, including the frequency, intensity, volume, and the types of resistance exercises appropriate for runners. Additionally, key considerations for designing a tailored strength training programme specific to runners will be discussed.


Speaker #3: CLIN ASST PROF MANDY ZHANG

Knee Osteoarthritis Unlocked: The Evidence for Joint Injections
