Six gold medals will be decided for the world's best Paralympic runners, jumpers and throwers at the National Stadium on Friday morning, September 11.
Men's Javelin Throw - F53/54
Markku Niinimaki of Finland and Felix Zepeda of Mexico will be looking to set the medal standard, after some great form leading into the competition.
Women's Shot Put - F35/36
This event is set to see some exciting competition from a number of strong putters. Athens bronze medalist Alla Malchyk of Ukraine has recorded solid distances this season, but Athens 2004 gold medalist Renata Chilewska of Poland is unlikely to go down without a fight.
Men's Triple Jump - F11
The reigning Paralympic Gold medalist, China's Li Duan, is sure to draw plenty of attention from the crowd. But he will face some tough competition from the Athens silver and bronze medalists Zeynidin Bilalov of Azerbaijan and Russian Sergey Sevostianov.
Men's 100m - T38 and Women's 100m - T37
In both the Men's 100m - T38 and Women's 100m - T37, the Athens 2004 medalists will be looking to add to their medal hauls.
In the Men's event, Timothy Sullivan of Australia, Zhou Wenjun of China and Farhat Chida of Tunisia will all be looking to repeat, or improve upon, their gold, silver and bronze performances respectively from the competition four years ago.
In the Women's 100m, Oksana Krechunyak of Ukraine, Isabelle Foerder of Germany and Lisa McIntosh of Australia will also be looking to add to their silverware. McIntosh and Foerder were the fastest two qualifiers for the final, in 14.27s and 14.28s respectively.
Women's 5000m - T54
A crash in Monday night's final of the Women's 5000m - T54 caused organizers to reschedule this event and the crowd at the Bird's Nest on Friday morning will be treated to this spectacular competition.
