This is being phased in over a 2-3 year period\, to enable the association to become fully experienced and compliant in a safe and secure manner.\nThe risk assessment has identified four broad categories of AWD participants\, namely Ambulant\, Push Rim Wheel Chair\, Hand Cycle and Duo Teams.\nIn 2019 Ambulatory AWD wanting to run either solo or with authorised Guide were invited to enter the 2019 Boston Marathon or Half Marathon.\nIn 2020 both Ambulatory and Push-Rim Wheelchair AWD are invited. In future years the categories will be expanded to include\, Hand-cycle\, and Duo Teams.\nThere may be a separate start for Push-rim Wheel Chair users (both Full and Half distances).\nAWD Participation Categories\n\nAmbulatory AWD: Proposed for 2019 events.\n\nTo be accepted for entry\, applicants must be able to propel themselves through the entire course. They may be authorised to be accompanied by a Human Guide\, whose role is to provide orientation and navigation support to a blind or visually impaired athlete\, or other ambulatory athlete with a disability who requires additional support\, on the event course. Guides are not scored and will not receive an official finishing time. There is no entry fee for a Guide.\n\nPush-rim Wheelchairs AWD: Proposed for 2020 events.\n\nA push-rim wheelchair is a racing wheelchair and is the only type of wheelchair permitted on the Boston Marathon course. For safety reasons\, athletes may not participate using a day chair or other non-racing wheelchair.\nTo be accepted for entry\, applicants planning to use a push-rim wheelchair must be able to propel themselves through the entire course. An Official Guide is permitted to accompany an AWD participant on the course\, but the guide may not push or pull the AWD participant.\nPlease note: All wheelchair entrants must wear helmets at all times while on the course. Athletes not wearing helmets will NOT be allowed to start the race and are subject to removal from the course.\nHand-cycle and Duo Teams. The definitions and specification to be drawn up following 2020 events\nGuide Selection\n\nAny AWD who requires a Guide to participate in 2020Boston (UK) Marathon event is permitted to run with one (1) Guide.\nIt is the athlete’s responsibility to select a Guide who can perform all Guide responsibilities at the athlete’s goal pace.\nIt is strongly recommended that an athlete selects a Guide with whom he/she regularly trains.\nIn limited situations\, an athlete may be permitted to register two (2) Guides\, who run in relay fashion\, where the athlete is accompanied by one (1) Guide at a time on the event course. If two (2) Guides are used\, the exchange must take place at nominated Exchange Stations located at the half way point of the event course (Half or Full Marathon).\nIf an athlete’s disability necessitates more than one (1) Guide\, the athlete may email the explanation\, including specific details about each Guide’s role on race day\, to info@bostonmarathon.co.uk
