Another objective is to specify the aim of communication between a visually handicapped sportsman and an accompanying runner.

Results: Athletics IS a suitable sports activity for visually handicapped people. Long-term co- operation of an athlete and an accompanying runner markedly influences the sports performance. Mutual communication, created during the athletic training, is also an important element for the performance increase. Mutual communication is characteristic for each athletic couple and therefore it is not possible to follow points, which were set in advance. Key words: athletics, communication, visual handicap, accompanying runner 3
