As inertial measurement units (IMUs) are used to capture gait data in real-world environments, guidelines are required in order to determine a ‘typical’ or ‘stable’ gait pattern across multiple days of data collection. Since uphill and downhill running can greatly affect the biomechanics of running gait, this study sought to determine the number of runs needed to establish a stable running pattern during level, downhill, and uphill conditions for both univariate and multivariate analyses of running biomechanical d…
