Running Blade Sponsorship Program
Expanding access to adaptive running through a national partnership between AdaptX and Less Leg More Heart
This program helps amputees access running blades so they can train, race, and experience movement through adaptive sport. Selection is led by AdaptX. Intake, funding coordination, and blade fulfillment are managed by Less Leg More Heart
If you have been selected by AdaptX to receive a running blade, congratulations. To move forward, all recipients must complete an intake with Less Leg More Heart.
This allows our team to coordinate your blade order, connect with your prosthetist, and align timelines for training and race readiness.
