More than 60 adaptive athletes from 10 different nations will compete in this event to earn points to qualify for their respective Paralympic teams. “Hosting the National Championships with so many outstanding athletes from around the world competing here in Winter Park is truly amazing. This event shows everyone watching that these athletes are not people with disabilities, but people with a true competitive spirit,” says Erik Petersen, NSCD Competition Director. Adaptive athletes combine speed and agility while racing down slopes at speeds in excess of 60 mph. Competition accommodates male and female athletes with a physical impairments such as spinal injury, cerebral palsy, amputation and blindness/vision impairment. Athletes compete in three categories based on their functional ability, and a factor system allows athletes with different impairments to compete against each other. Athletes compete in three events: Super-G, Giant Slalom and Slalom to earn points that eventually determine their standing on the national team and who will be representing their respective country in the 2022 Winter Paralympics in Beijing, China. Athletes competing include: Andrew Kurka, the US sit-skier who took gold in the men’s downhill and silver in the super-G in the 2018 Paralympic Winter Games in PyeongChang, South Korea; Kurt Oatway, the Canadian won gold at the 2018 Winter Paralympics in men's sitting Super G; and Alana Ramsay, Canadian stand skier won bronze medals in the Super G and Super combined in PyeongChang.

  • Energy and Nutrient Issues in Athletes with Spinal Cord Injury: Are They at Risk for Low Energy Availability?
    nutrients Review Energy and Nutrient Issues in Athletes with Spinal Cord Injury: Are They at Risk for Low Energy Availability? Katherine Figel 1,*, Kelly Pritchett 1, Robert Pritchett 1 and Elizabeth Broad 2 1 Central Washington University, Ellensburg, WA 98926, USA; [email protected] (K.P.); [email protected] (R.P.) 2 United States Olympic Committee, Chula Vista, CA 91915, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: Katherine.fi[email protected]; Tel.: +1-206-755-1001 Received: 8 June 2018; Accepted: 6 August 2018; Published: 13 August 2018 Abstract: Low energy availability (LEA) and nutrient intake have been well studied in able-bodied athletes, but there is a lack of research examining these issues amongst athletes with spinal cord injury (SCI). To date, there have been no studies that have examined energy availability (EA) amongst this population. Furthermore, athletes with SCI may experience unique challenges around nutrition that may increase their risk of LEA. This review will evaluate the literature and assess whether this population is at risk for LEA. Due to the limited research on this topic, sedentary individuals with SCI and para athletes were also included in this review. Review of the current literature suggests that athletes with SCI may be at an increased risk for LEA. While research examining EA and risk of LEA in athletes with SCI is lacking, the number of athletes with SCI continues to increase; therefore, further research is warranted to assess nutrient and energy needs and their risk to this population. Keywords: spinal cord injury; athlete; energy availability; nutrient deficiency; low energy availability; bone mineral density; para athlete; menstrual dysfunction; Female Athlete Triad; Relative Energy Deficiency in Sports (RED-S) 1.
