“Every runner you know”, as with OP and powerlifting? Or just a few? Because there’s a wide gulf between a subset being injured and injury being a foregone conclusion. To miss that is to miss OP’s point.
My anecdotes (to go with OPs) is that the competitive powerlifters I know have injuries, and the 'gymbro' types who use the big lifts for health and some light bodybuilding, for the most part do not.
Chasing that new ATH is addictive, and a great way to exceed what your body can safely handle.
