  • Title: [Triathlon--continuous stress on muscles, tendons and bones?].
    Author: Sell S, Konermann W.
    Journal: Sportverletz Sportschaden; 1988 Sep; 2(3):112-4. PubMed ID: 3242157.
    Abstract:
    Injuries in triathletes are in the majority of the cases exertion injuries; trauma is rare. An athlete developed in triathlon races, after two metatarsal stress fractures and one in the distal tibia, a fourth stress fracture in the proximal tibia. The injury-provoking factors were a steep increase of the weekly mileage in combination with a pronated flat foot.
