Athlete: Coach, I need to ask you something. Is it really so bad if I have a drink with my friends? Sometimes it feels like everyone else is having fun except me.

Coach: You can have a drink, if you choose. No one will stop you.

Athlete: And what about smoking, just every now and then? Just to feel free for a moment.

Coach: You can do that too. This is your life, not mine.

Athlete: Coach, sometimes I just want to be like everyone else. Go to parties, stay out all night, laugh, and not worry about tomorrow. Can I do that?

Coach: Absolutely. No one can take those moments away from you. The world is full of options.

Athlete: And if I want to go even further, to just escape get high, live wild, forget all the pressure for a night? Can I?

Coach: Yes. All of that is within your reach. You can choose any path you want.

Athlete: Then why does it feel like I can’t have both? Why do I feel this ache in my chest, like something has to give?

Coach: Because, deep down, you know the truth. You can have anything, but you can’t have everything. Every great dream demands something from you. You are free to enjoy every moment, every temptation, every thrill but you are not free from the cost. You cannot expect to show up on race day with the body, the mind, the spirit of a champion if you are not willing to sacrifice what others are not. Every late night, every shortcut, every easy decision chips away at your potential.

Everything is permitted, but not everything is worthwhile.

So you must choose. What means more to you? A fleeting night or a lifelong dream? The comfort of now, or the pride of forever? You cannot serve two masters.

Every runner stands at this crossroads. The easy road is wide, full of laughter and distractions. The hard road is narrow, but it leads to places most will never see. The finish line you dream of only you can decide if it’s worth the sacrifice.

You choose how far to go. You choose whether you will look back with pride, or with regret. Only you can decide what your dreams are worth.

That’s the cost. And only you can pay it.

If you often find yourself gasping for air too quickly during runs, the problem may not just be your fitness level your breathing technique plays a big role too.

Many runners unknowingly rely on shallow chest breathing, which makes running feel harder than it should. The real secret to improving endurance is diaphragmatic breathing, also called belly breathing.

Why it works:

By drawing deeper breaths from your diaphragm, your body takes in more oxygen. This extra oxygen fuels your muscles more effectively, helping you fight fatigue and maintain stamina over longer distances.

How to practice better breathing:

- Train belly breathing while lying down: Place one hand on your chest and the other on your stomach. Inhale deeply through your nose so your belly rises while your chest stays still.

- Adopt a rhythmic pattern on the run: Try a 3:2 rhythm inhaling for three steps, exhaling for two. This not only regulates your breathing but also helps balance the impact across both sides of your body.

- Focus on full exhales: Clearing out carbon dioxide prevents that breathless feeling from setting in too quickly.

Put this into practice during your next run and you’ll likely feel more relaxed, steady, and strong—even as the miles add up.

As we mark the 30th anniversary of JAWS (Job Access With Speech), we’re often asked: What is JAWS?

JAWS is a screen reader that enables individuals who are blind or visually impaired to use a computer independently. It provides speech output and works with keyboard commands or a Braille display, making it possible to browse the web, write emails, work with documents and spreadsheets, and more.
Whether you're just getting started in digital accessibility, supporting a colleague, or learning about assistive technology, JAWS remains one of the most trusted and widely used screen readers in the world.

Nas Campanella is the first blind newsreader in the world. 🙌🏼

Nas is blind and has a neurological condition means that she can’t read braille. Impressively, she communicates the news by listening to a prompter in her ear.

You might recognise her voice from Triple J radio or from her work as the Disability Affairs Reporter for the ABC.

Chatting on an episode of ‘The Imperfects’ podcast, Nas talks about her relationship with her disability and how it shapes her identity.

She dives into some powerful conversations and shares why, if a magical operation could restore her sight, she wouldn’t change a thing.

What Is a Refreshable Braille Display?

A refreshable braille display is a device that allows people who are blind or deafblind to read digital text through braille. It connects to a computer, smartphone, or tablet and displays the text using small pins that move up and down to form braille characters. As you scroll through a page or navigate a document, the braille “refreshes,” updating to the next line of text.

These devices open up digital access for braille users, supporting independence, literacy, and communication.

Quick Facts About Refreshable Braille Displays:
1. They use tiny pins that rise and fall to form braille characters.
2. Most displays show one line of braille at a time (typically 20 to 80 cells long).
3. They connect to devices via USB or Bluetooth.
4. They work with screen readers like JAWS, NVDA, or VoiceOver.
5. You can use them to read emails, browse websites, write documents, and more.
6. Some models include a braille keyboard for typing.
7. They are essential tools for many students, professionals, and lifelong braille users.
8. Displays are portable and can fit in a backpack or laptop bag.
9. There are multiline displays emerging, though most are still single-line.
10. Prices vary widely—from under $1,000 to several thousand—depending on features and size.

Technology like this helps ensure braille readers aren’t left behind in our digital world.
