As an athlete with a visual impairment who is accepting services from Running Blind, I agree to abide by the following:

• I will train to the best of my ability and in good spirits when using the services of a Running Blind provided Guide Runner.
• I will plan the workout in advance with my guide runner as much as possible, and try to minimize last minute changes to the plan barring unforeseen circumstances.
• I will notify my primary guide runner as soon as I know that I will not be able to attend any given scheduled workout.
• I will communicate with my guide runner before the workout starts regarding any condition I have that might affect my ability to finish the workout (ie soreness, pulled muscle, cold, fever etc)
• I will not wear head-phones at any time that I am training with a Running Blind arranged guide runner.
• I will accept the decisions of my guide runner regarding issues of safety based on training location, traffic conditions, weather conditions and training surfaces which could include shorting a workout, changing the planned course, or cancelling a workout entirely.
• I will notify Running Blind in writing regarding any problems with my guide runner's ability to honor the agreement regarding workouts that have been planned.
• I will notify Running Blind in writing if I feel that any assigned guide runner has acted inappropriately. I will do so within 24 hours of any incident.

I understand that a failure to abide by the good natured and mature conduct outlined in these conditions could mean forfeiture of future service support from Running Blind.
Further, I understand that running along city streets is dangerous and can include hazards such as cracks, puddles, potholes, road debris and vehicle traffic, and that running as a visually impaired athlete even with a guide runner is requires special attention on my part to help allow the guide runner to look out for my welfare as well as their own. I will not hold my guide runner, Running Blind, its director, board members, volunteers, donors or supporters liable for any injury or loss of property that occurs as a result of any unforeseen event when a Running Blind guide is providing me with well intended support of my training.
