Manchester Frame Running Hub
Frame running is the latest athletics event to be include in para athletics, It is for people with neurological conditions or similar that require extra support to be able to run. Most people who take part in Frame Running are wheelchair users, or unable to walk a short distance and unable to run.
The participants/athletes use a three wheeled frame to propel themselves forward using their legs and feet. They sit on a saddle and have a chest plate to support their upper body.
In 2022 we established a Manchester Frame Running Hub and currently we are the only place in the North West to offer the opportunity for some disabled people to experience running for the first time in their life. Every session is led by qualified coaches and several volunteers.
Sessions run on a Wednesday evening 5pm – 6.30pm at the Manchester Regional Athletics Arena Gate 13 Rowsley Street, Etihad Campus M11 3FF
