About Achilles International Achilles International empowers all people living with disabilities to participate in adaptive running and endurance sports. We build a supportive community to break down barriers to the start line and beyond. Our vision is a world where everyone can run, walk, or roll together. We reframe what’s possible whether it’s in the park, on the race course or in everyday life.
