In this thesis, development of a trail running injury screening instrument (TRISI), the candidate used a multiple methods approach to conduct five quantitative studies. A systematic review identified the epidemiological gaps in trail running injury literature. To address these research gaps, he investigated the epidemiology of injury and determined injury risk factors among various trail running populations. Through human judgement modelling, he used expert opinion to determine the relevance of the identified injury risk factors in a trail running context and provide weightings for each factor contributing to a composite score for injury risk. A living systematic review on trail running injury risk factors was conducted to ensure the TRISI stays updated with current research evidence. Clinicians can use the TRISI to identify areas of higher risk to target in the development of injury risk management strategies among trail runners.
