Keeping fit often means sharing a busy pathway with cyclists,runners and walkers,but imagine facing the task of doing it all without being able to see or hear.It is a challenge many disabled athletes face,unless someone agrees to be their eyes and ears.
Newly formed group Achilles Brisbane pairs visually and audibly impaired (视觉和听觉受损的) athletes with people who would like to guide them.
Jane Britt,president of Achilles Brisbane,who is—vision and hearing—impaired,said,"When we go out,it's much less frightening to have someone beside us that has full hearing to listen for us and tell us what's there."
Ms.Cullen and Ms.Britt meet up most Saturday mornings to take part in the five-kilometer park run.Their partnership is built on trust,but Ms.Britt said that it took time to develop.
Ms.Britt said it took an unexpected storm for her to trust Ms.Cullen completely."There was violent rain,my glasses were broken and we were walking together.I suddenly had to tell her I couldn't see anything,and I was going to have to completely trust her.From that time I knew it was going to work because she was so good about dealing with the special situation we both found ourselves in," she said.
Isabella Allen and her seeing eye dog Tatum are two new additions to the Achilles Brisbane.Ms.Allen kept active by rowing,running and cycling but found it difficult to keep going as her vision became worse.After nearly giving up completely,she worked up the courage to ask Achilles Brisbane to find someone to share a boat with her.
Ms.Allen said the fear of not finding anyone to row with almost stopped her from reaching out to Achilles Brisbane."But,they found people and matched me to them," she said."It's the best thing I've ever done."

I started skiing when I was three years old.My mom worked as a ski instructor as she also loved the snow.While the other 1 in my group were whining (哭闹) and complaining,I was busy learning skiing.And at the age of four,I was 2 through the snow with my mom.I remember falling once and realizing that the 3 was taller than I was.
When I was seven,I decided I wanted to take my skiing to the next level and join a 4 .There were two options:racing,a popular event for girls,and free skiing,an event mainly for 5 .Siding the chairlift (登山吊椅) with my mother,I would see free skiers flying and spinning through the air.I 6 knew which team I wanted to join:free skiing.
As soon as I joined the team,I was placed in a low level.7 ,I soon climbed the rankings until I came to the 8 group.At that point,I was the only girl on my team.Although being a girl in a male-dominated sport can be difficult,I'm actually thankful that I've had the 9 that I never had.
Life is not going to be a smooth road for all of us,and building 10 early on is important.My experiences have made me tougher and have 11 me to meet my setbacks with open arms.In fact,after this encounter,I've become a better skier.However,there is no way that I could have done it without my supportive 12 always behind me and my 13 coach always,always behind me as well.
I encourage you all to 14 your comfort zone to show the boys that girls are just as 15 as they are.
