[Sportsandrec] Statistics on Fitness in Blind Community

[Justin.Williams2]

Yeah, he's got that right.  They seem to be on the extreme of heavily obese,
or rail thin, with the former probably more predominate than the latter.

hay Tina,
I haven't seen any stats but based on my observations of the blind comunity,
the level of fittness is even lower  than it is for the genrel public. There
are of course exceptions and many outstandingly fit and strong blind people
out there but the level of "couch potatoism" (which runs rampent amongst the
American public)is at an even higher level for the blind.
