Achilles International is a non-profit organization that empowers individuals with disabilities to participate in adaptive running and endurance sports. Our vision is for a more inclusive and accessible world where everyone can run, walk, or roll together. A world that brings all people with disabilities off the sidelines, improving their wellbeing, driving greater awareness of their common experiences, and inspiring product and policy innovation that meets their needs. Since our founding in 1983, we have empowered over 150,000 athletes of all ages and ability levels to participate in endurance events around the globe...including right here in Connecticut! Our main objective has always been to bring hope, inspiration, and the joys of achievement to all.
