Three-dimensional (3D) motion-capture of the foot and shank, and ground reaction force data were collected during each running trial. Retro-reflective markers (diameter 9.0 mm) were placed on the skin of the right foot in accordance with a previously described foot model, allowing modelling of a calcaneus segment and a shank segment29. Kinematic data was captured at 200 Hz using an eight camera 3D optoelectronic motion capture system (Qualysis, Gothenburg, Sweden) while kinetic data were synchronously captured at 2 kHz through an analogue to digital converter, using the Qualysis Track Management software (Qualysis, Gothenburg, Sweden).
