Theresa Sukal Moulton, PT, DPT, PhD and David Black: Frame Running - A cerebral palsy adaptive and recreational sport

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.
