A traumatic injury is the most common way that people injure their Achilles tendon. The tendon itself is fairly strong, so a large force is required to disrupt it. In older people tendons become more fragile, so a normal stress on an abnormal tendon is also a mechanism for injury in older people, especially the "weekend warriors".
