Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Change in radiographic score after marathon running
up to 1 year
Change in self-reported hip questionnaire after marathon running
up to 1 year
Secondary Outcomes (1)
Number of participants who finished the training for/and the marathon vs not finishing
up to 4 months
Interventions
The main method used will be 3 Tesla MRI, which is a high resolution imaging technique. The participants will be asked to undergo musculoskeletal MRI scanning (pelvis and lumbar spine).MRI is a non-invasive procedure which excludes the risk of radiation (in comparison to other imaging modalities: X-ray, CT
