Need for plantar pressure normative data in running

[Sobhan Sobhani]

Dear all,
We are going to do a research on plantar pressure in running, and to calculate the sample size we need within subjects variability. I am wondering if somebody have some normative data of plantar pressure in normal running?

I appreciate you help,
Sobhan

Dear Thad,
Thanks a lot for the article. As you have mentioned data is for treadmill running not overground. It seems a nice article though. I hope it will contain data regarding within subjects variability.

Cheers,
