Empire State Building Stair Race – info for PTs

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

Today marks the 39th annual Empire State Building tower race where runners challenge gravity 7″ at a time over 1,576 repetitions.  Just like Jack Frost’s eyes got big recently in the east from Snowpocalypse 2016 last month, Mr. Patellofemoral Joint Syndrome is about to display his ugly grin…a very wide grin at that.

For the sake of PTs keeping up with the literature on PFP treatment, here are a few articles that you can skim if you see one of these runners come in your clinic in next few days.  I’m sure there will be some aching knees in the near future.
