We need a “Retro Run”

To Retro Run means to set off running in the direction your back is facing rather than the more popular direction of forward! Ok, I have never tried retro running but I promise to attempt it later this afternoon. Maybe I will even capture it on video! Aaron Yoder is a man who has perfected retro running. He just set a new backwards mile world record at 5 minuets and 30 seconds! Most people cannot even do that going forward!

Below you will find a neat video put together by Great Big Story. Aaron is quotes saying, “I love running backwards, seeing how far I have gone as opposed to how far I need to go.”

Thats speaks to me today. May we be inspired to turn around and celebrate how far God has taken us thus far! We only get that perspective when doing something hard, different, and creative. So get up and go today friends! Maybe a retro run is what we needed. Maybe a retro walk? I would suggest a closed course or a track before retro running on the street! Just saying! Peace Friends!
