[NABS-L] Track

[Logan Anderson]

Hello,
 I ran Track and cross-country at my high school. I had a guide runner that I ran with. I was also a person who threw shotput, and with that event I would have someone clap in the direction that I was meant to throw the ball. I would think that discus could be accomplished in the same way. And alternative would be to use some sort of sound device such as a beeping box instead of someone clapping.  I will say that with any accommodation you ask for, you will need to prove that it is absolutely necessary and will not give you an unfair advantage.

If I may ask, what event will you mostly be participating? You've specifically mentioned track team but I know various sporting events such as long jump/high jump etc falls under the track and field branch. As a tip, know your running pace when searching for your running guide. Seeking someone that's similar or slightly faster guide could be advantageous for your sport career. My main issue was that the guide that I was provided with had slightly slower pace than me and that slowed me down later towards the xc season.
