My name is Jared Broughton, and I am a CSEP-Personal Trainer that specializes in visual and physical disabilities. I have worked and lived with visually impaired people my entire life. I am personally visually impaired and classified as legally blind. In running my classification is: T13.
I have worked with all different demographics of disabilities; ranging from: Children-Elderly in retirement homes. I have been volunteering with regularly with physical disabled people with all diverse conditions. I am a serious competitive runner in pursuit in discovering my potential. My long-term goal is to increase physical activity awareness to youth & young adults. In addition, I want to grow the sport of running by coaching and through motivational means. By practicing what I preach, will enable me to better understand my athletes and active people I work with. I am fresh in the field and am taking on clients. There is nothing anyone with a disability that could testify to me that I wouldn’t understand. I will work collaboratively with anyone that wants to make a difference in their life.
