Running Frames
Whether you are looking for a relaxed run, a challenging sprint, or just a way to get from point A to point B, a Running Frame will do the trick!
​
Running frames roll so freely that even children and adults who use power wheelchairs can propel themselves. It can be fun and stimulating regardless of whether you are a child, teenager, or senior.
The low center of gravity and frame design offers good stability and poise while running or walking. The saddle unit counteracts lateral sway and can be used as a seat when resting.
Running with a running frame is a fun and low impact activity that can be enjoyed with family, friends, and non- or disabled peers. It can open a whole new perspective on your abilities and opportunities, as well as a wide range of social interaction and learning experiences.
Individual choice of saddle, body support and handlebars enables you to challenge your aerobic fitness and work your major muscles while being gentle on your hips, knees and ankles. The drop down saddle linkage and open rear frame make the running frame easy to get on and off, even from a wheelchair.
A Running Frame is a great choice if you:
​
-
Have cerebral palsy or other disabilities that affect mobility and balance – e.g. muscular dystrophy, Parkinson’s disease or amputations.
-
Want to be able to run, move fast and engage in physical exercise in the outdoors.
-
Are aged 5 or older.
​
Where to use a Running Frame:

In the outdoors on a stable surface – on a track field, in the street or on a stable path in the forest. Running frames are designed for multiple activities, including basic mobility, play, family rides, sport, and physical fitness.
