The purpose of this study is to understand the effects of muscle strengthening and balance exercise interventions on muscle strength, running mechanics and postural control in novice recreational runners. Participants will be assessed before and after they engage in an 8-week exercise intervention program.

| Strengthening | Other | Participants will be asked to complete 8 weeks of isolated ankle strengthening at home. |
|
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Change in Strength | Strength of the muscles crossing the ankle, knee and hip joint will be assessed at baseline and after 8 weeks of training in order to assess the change in strength following training. | Week 0, Week 8 |
| Change in Running Mechanics | Running kinematics and kinetics will be measured using 3D motion capture technology at baseline and after 8 weeks of training in order to assess the change in running mechanics following training. | Week 0, Week 8 |
| Change in Postural Control | Postural control will be assessed using single leg stance and the star excursion balance test at baseline and after 8 weeks of training in order to assess the change in postural control following training. | Week 0, Week 8 |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Cumulative Running Related Injuries | Self-reported running-related injuries will be collected on a weekly basis for a total of 6 months following enrollment in order to quantify the cumulative amount of injuries. | Week 0 through Week 24 |
