 Each year, up to 250,000 Anterior Cruciate Ligament ACL reconstructions are performed in the United States.1 Individuals who undergo ACL reconstruction vary from the weekend warrior to high level professional athletes. With a majority of ACL injuries occurring from a sports injury, returning to running is a key portion of the rehabilitation process.2 Following an ACL tear, knee laxity and instability are a common complaint. Due to this, individuals are classified as coper or non-copers.3 Copers are individuals who are able to maintain their previous function with conservative treatment. Non-copers are persons who are unable to return to their previous level of activity due to instability or who perform high level activities. Non-copers will undergo ACL reconstruction surgery, followed by a lengthy rehabilitation process.3
