Description

In Episode 6, Jen talks with physical therapist and cerebral palsy researcher Theresa Sukal Moulton and Frame Runner manufacturer/vendor David Black of RAD Innovations about the recreational and adaptive sport of Frame Running. A relatively new recreational sport in the US, a Frame Runner is an adaptive running frame that looks similar to a bike without pedals which allows individuals with CP run or walk with minimal to no assistance. It has become popular internationally and is included as a sport in the World Paralympics. David, Theresa and Jen discuss the history of Frame Running, who can participate, how it works, research to support it and how to get involved.  Frame Running/ Race Running Research https://bmjopen.bmj.com/content/10/7/e036469 https://bmcmusculoskeletdisord.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12891-020-03202-8 https://core.ac.uk/reader/161924354?utm_source=linkout Frame Running/ Race Running Clubs International: Cerebral Palsy International Sport and Recreation Association https://cpisra.org/ https://www.cpsport.org/sports/racerunning/racerunning-clubs-and-sessions/ US: https://www.racerunningusa.org/frame-running-clubs.html https://www.rad-innovations.com/racerunning.html
