volunteers

Our volunteers are people who enjoy running; they are friendly, considerate men and women who think everyone should be able to experience the joy of running.  Volunteering to run with Achilles members in regularly scheduled workouts is a way to get out and exercise in a low-stress, friendly environment.
 
As a volunteer you are not expected to be a professional, or an expert on health or nutritional matters. Your role is that of a companion. You are there for safety, morale, conversation, fun and exercise. Even so, it is a good idea to know something about running with a disabled person.
