In recognition of #WorldDownSyndromeDay, we’re nodding to “Runner 321”, a movement led by adidas and fcb_canada calling for more representation of neurodivergent athletes in mainstream sports. In 2022, adidas released an inspirational video featuring Chris Nikic, the first person with Down syndrome to complete the Iron Man. The spot asked every marathon to hold bib #321 (representing Trisomy 21, the Down syndrome identifier), for a neurodivergent athlete. The marathons answered the call: Within one week of the campaign launching, the Boston Marathon included Runner 321. In a year, six majors and hundreds of races across the world did too, putting a generation of Down syndrome runners in the spotlight to inspire others. Let’s make room for Runner 321 in every race. #Runner321
