Disabled Athlete Request

I am a manual wheelchair user and would like to be able to select manual road wheeling, track wheeling or handcycling as options on the app, ideally with an appropriate icon - Thank you

Along with the wheelchair request, mine is a little different. I had a stroke and have had to learn everything from the beginning. Had to learn to walk. But my issue is with my weakness, I can't do the hardest challenges but wonder if there is a way to "dumb" down some of the challenges for those with disabilities, a different category or something. I struggled at first to go 3 steps. I can now get about 3 miles walking but no further. I don't have any answer for this but maybe physical therapists could weigh in. thanks.

Will let you display wheelchair pushes
You will need A Venu 3/3S device

My watchfaces have already support wheelchair mode. You need compatible watch (currently venu 3/3s).
