Frame running, previously known as Race Running, is an adaptive athletic discipline for teens and adults who rely on sport aids for mobility and balance and cannot functionally run.

It is appropriate for individuals with severe motor and coordination impairments who can take part in Frame Running as a therapeutical and recreational activity: its use improves overall fitness, strength and physical and emotional well-being.

It stimulates all systems of the body: skeletal and muscular, central nervous and cardiovascular system. Combined with the social context it gives a significant boost to the development of individual character and personality.
