Subject: Information on Fell Running
From: pss5j3f@leeds.ac.uk
Dear Club Secretary,
We are a group of third year sports science students from the University of Leeds. We are currently involved in a virtual project aimed at preventing and treating overuse injuries in fell running. We were wondering if you could tell us the main overuse injuries that your runners suffer from. Also, what services would you expect from this theoretical clinic? Any information you can offer would be greatly appreciated.
Regards, James Fattal, Ravi Hannah, Charlotte Johnson, Rebecca Morton, James McNaught
