Access Matters Season 2 Episode 8 Team With A Vision

The Boston Marathon, one of the world’s most iconic races, is back this year, and we’ve managed to catch up with Laura Alpert about the Massachusetts Association for the Blind and Visually Impaired’s Team with a Vision . Running the marathon is a personal journey for many, and Ellen Goldberg, a 15-time Team with a Vision member, shares some of her unforgettable experiences. Blind and low vision runners often rely on guides to help them navigate the race, and Rebecca Trachsel, Jared Broughton’s guide, provides insights into the role of guides in the marathon. Cheyenne Meyer and Brett Simms have a great story about the teamwork of a couple who met while running the marathon. Don’t forget to support the team by checking out their various Give and Gain pages.
