Track Practice Program

The rules of Paralympic track and field are almost identical to those of its non-disabled counterpart. Certain allowances are made to accommodate certain disabilities. For example, the blind and more severely visually impaired runners compete with guide runners, who are often attached by the wrist with a tether to the runner.

Adaptive Sports Ohio offers track & field and road racing sessions in Wooster, Cleveland and Youngstown throughout the summer. Athletes have the opportunity to travel and compete at national track & field competitions and can participate in road races.
