FRAME RUNNING CAMP & CUP 2026 – Full Speed as Frame Running Returned to Bagsværd

During week 28, Frame Running athletes from around the world gathered in Bagsværd for a week of training and competition. This year's camp was held at Bagsværd Stadium, which once again provided the perfect setting for an event that demonstrated the great potential of Frame Running across both grassroots and elite sport.

There was plenty of speed, excitement, and joy as Parasport Frederiksberg welcomed participants to the 29th International Frame Running Camp & Cup. This year, 72 athletes from 13 countries took part in training sessions, competitions, and a variety of social activities.

Once again, the camp proved its value as a meeting place where new athletes could experience their first international competition while exchanging experiences with athletes from other countries. At the same time, we welcomed some of the world's best Frame Running athletes, helping to create an atmosphere that truly reflects the camp's ethos of bringing together both grassroots and elite athletes.

During the final four days of the camp, the annual Frame Running Cup took place, featuring four competitions running simultaneously. Across all four competitions, the host nation, Denmark, finished with the highest medal count, winning 29 gold, 10 silver, and 7 bronze medals – 46 medals in total.

In second place was Sweden with 25 gold, 12 silver, and 6 bronze medals, for a total of 43 medals.

In third place was the Netherlands with 24 gold, 0 silver, and 0 bronze medals, giving them a total of 24 medals.

Together, all participating nations beautifully showcased the diversity, inclusivity, and global spirit of Frame Running. Athletes from across the world came together to celebrate determination, friendship, and sporting excellence, demonstrating that Frame Running continues to unite people of all backgrounds and abilities through competition and community.

A new addition this year was the 5,000-metre race, which was held on Wednesday following the Opening Ceremony to draw attention to the longest distance of the event. It proved to be a great success, with fantastic support for the athletes who took on this demanding race.

Chairman of the Organising Committee, Mansoor Siddiqi, said:

"Once again, this event has shown that there is great interest in participating, both as an athlete and as a volunteer. This year, we even welcomed volunteers from France and the United States.

Another thing that stands out to me is the increasing number of Danish athletes taking part. This is especially important, as one of the aims of the event is to give Danish athletes, who do not normally compete internationally, the opportunity to race against athletes from other countries."
