Abstract
With the rapid development of the social economy and the rapid improvement of public health and sports awareness, marathon sports continue to flourish. As a competitive activity that challenges the limits of human endurance, it requires extremely high physical and mental qualities. However, with high-intensity, long-term, and repetitive mechanical loads, runners face an undeniable risk of sports injuries. This article systematically summarizes the causes, prevention strategies, and scientific rehabilitation pathways of common marathon injuries such as iliotibial band syndrome, patellofemoral joint pain syndrome, Achilles tendinitis, ankle sprains, muscle strains, and muscle spasms, such as physical therapy and functional recovery training. Intended to provide systematic injury prevention and rehabilitation guidance for runners, coaches, and medical workers, and to support the healthy and sustainable development of marathon sports. Only by deeply understanding the damage mechanism and implementing comprehensive management strategies can we effectively reduce risks, ensure the health of runners, and ultimately promote the vigorous development of marathon sports towards a safer, more sustainable, and healthier direction, achieving its true sustainable development goals.
