The IPC Athletics World Championships is an event organized by the International Paralympic Committee (IPC). Athletes with a physical disability compete, and in a few events athletes with an intellectual disability compete. Originally it was organised every four years, but this changed in 2011 and it is now organised biennially. The first IPC Athletics World Championships was held in Berlin, Germany in 1994. They are a de facto parallel to the IAAF World Championships in Athletics for able-bodied athletes, and are held in the same years as the IAAF championships, although they are not connected to each other. London, who previously hosted the 2012 Summer Paralympics, will become the first city to host both the IAAF World Championships and IPC World Championships in the same year. The IPC Athletics Marathon World Cup returns in 2016 to be part of the Virgin Money London Marathon for the third time. After the huge success of the 2012 Paralympic Games, London was chosen by IPC Athletics, the international federation for para-athletics, to launch the first IPC Athletics Marathon World Cup in 2013 with events for paraathletes added to a race-day programme that had long included elite wheelchair competitions. Four IPC Athletics world records were broken that year as athletes took part in six events. Another world record went in 2014 when a seventh event for T51/52 wheelchair athletes was added to the programme. The Marathon World Cup was not held in 2015 when the London Marathon hosted the IPC Athletics Marathon World Championships, which witnessed four world records from eight races. The IPC Athletics Marathon World Cup will be part of the London Marathon until at least 2017.
