Exploring the Synergy of Footwear and Bra Support on Running Mechanics in Real-World Conditions

This study examines how sports bras and running shoes impact how female runners move. We want to understand how these affect performance and comfort. We will study 15 female runners using special sensors while they run outdoors. They will do a 20-minute run followed by a 5k run to make them tired. Then, they will run for 5 minutes in different bras and shoes. We will look at how these things change how they run and how comfortable they feel. Our goal is to help make better sports clothes for female runners.
