RaceRunning, also known as Frame Running, [2][3] is an athletic discipline for disabled athletes or 'racerunners'. Athletes use a running bike, a three-wheeled frame with a saddle, body support and most notably, no pedals. Athletes run over distances similar to other track and road running disciplines; 100, 200, 400, 800 meters as well as 5 kilometers, 10 kilometers, half and full marathons.
The sport of RaceRunning[4] was founded in Denmark in 1991 by Paralympian Connie Hansen and Mansoor Siddiqi, who is currently the international RaceRunning coordinator. RaceRunning is one of the newest additions to the World Para Athletics program and could be included in the 2024 Paralympic Games.
