Running in cadence helps prevent injuries
WRIGHT-PATTERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Ohio - Dr. (Lt. Col.) Jeffrey Beery, 445th Aerospace Medicine Squadron occupational health programs chief, says a double-time cadence of 180 steps per minute is very helpful for those training for their Air Force fitness run as it will greatly reduce the likelihood of shin splints and other musculoskeletal injury.
