Full Body Kinematics and Ground Reaction Forces of Fifty Heterogeneous Runners Completing Treadmill Running at Various Speeds and Gradients

This dataset includes 3-dimensional ground reaction force data (1000 Hz) collected from a gradient adjustable split belt Bertec instrumented treadmill (ITC-21-20) during running at a range of speeds and gradients. Alongside the ground reaction forces are marker based motion capture data. A full body markerset was tracked (250 Hz) using 12 Qualisys Miqus cameras and Qualisys Track Manager 2022, with additional anatomical markers tracked only during the static trial. Data was also collected from six inertial measurement unit sensors (Delsys Trigno) at 519 Hz, the sensors were secured to the following locations using either tape or Velcro strapping: medial left tibia, lateral left thigh, sacrum, T10 vertebrae, lateral left upperarm, and left wrist. All of this data was collected synchronously and saved to the typical motion capture format of c3d files. Fifty runners with mixed levels of experience and fitness levels are included in this dataset (25 males, 25 females).
