[Sportsandrec] accessibility of sports

[jenny hwang]

Hello Sean. I run with the group called Achilles. It is a running good. I want to guide and reuse a tether. My God holds onto one and a Tele, and I hold onto the other. The guide with either pull me with the tether; and he would also tell me when to turn. Heroes and tell me if there are any potholes or any speed.
