AB [EN] Foot orthoses are one of the most used strategies by healthy runners in injury preventionand performance improvement. However, their effect on running kinematics throughout anintense prolonged run in this population is unknown. Moreover, there is some controversyregarding the use of custom-made versus prefabricated foot orthoses. This study analysedthe effect of different foot orthoses (custom-made, prefabricated and a control condition) onspatio-temporal and angular (knee flexion and foot eversion) kinematic parameters andtheir behaviour during an intense prolonged run. Twenty-four recreational runners per-formed three similar tests that consisted of running 20 min on a treadmill at 80% of theirmaximal aerobic speed, each one with a different foot orthosis condition. Contact and flighttime, and stride length and stride rate were measured every 5 min by an optical measure-ment photoelectric cell system. Knee flexion and foot eversion kinematic parameters weremeasured by two high-speed cameras. No significant differences were found between thedifferent foot orthoses in any of the time points studied and between the interaction of footorthosis and behaviour over time, in any of the variables studied (P > 0.05). The use of cus-tom-made and prefabricated foot orthoses during an intense prolonged run does not pro-duce changes in spatio-temporal and kinematic parameters in healthy runners. Theseresults suggest that a healthy runner maintains its ideal movement pattern throughout a 20minute prolonged run, regardless the type of foot orthosis used
