Running buddy for a blind person

Running buddy for a blind person

Peter van der Mast (57) is a running buddy for blind and visually impaired individuals. They go running together in the park every week. “I enjoy helping others to stay active. Plus, I get to hear the most interesting stories and my fitness is improving all the time.”

“Running together is very intimate”

“Running together is very intimate”

I am a buddy at Running Blind Amsterdam. I guide fellow runners who cannot (or no longer) see well, so that they can still go running. The sport we share together. I am the eyes for a fellow runner, so to speak.
