A new type of carbon fiber running foot helped propel an American sprinter to a medal at the London Paralympic Games.

At London’s Paralympic Games in September, USA track and field star Richard Browne took the silver medal in the highly anticipated 100-meter race for below-the-knee amputees. The 21-year-old was the first athlete to train with and compete with the Catapult^® Running Foot from his sponsor Freedom Innovations, LLC, Irvine, CA, at a Paralympic Games.
