Athletics at the 2012 Summer Paralympics – Men's 1500 metres

The Men's 1500m athletics events for the 2012 Summer Paralympics took place at the London Olympic Stadium from 31 August to 4 September.

A T11 athlete may be entirely without sight, or be able to perceive light, but have no ability to see the shape of a hand at any distance.

Athletes in this category have a variety of visual impairments, but can typically recognize contours from a distance of 2 to 6 metres.

They have good ability in their dominant side of their body (ie hemiplegia).

The T46 category is for athletes who have a single above or below elbow amputation or similar disability, with normal function in both legs.
