This dataset, run_biomech_tbl_df, is a tibble containing biomechanics data of human subjects (\(N = 1,832\)) running on a treadmill. Data include 3D marker positions over trials ranging from 25 to 60 seconds. In addition, demographic information and calculated variables of interest (such as step width, stride rate, peak knee flexion angle) are provided. The dataset also comes with sample processing code and data analysis tutorials.
