We are getting ready for the radio event of the year in Maine-WBLM's A to Z. Except for this year, we doing it ass backward and going from Z to A! Captain and Celeste will start with the Z titles on Monday morning and then we will go back through the World Class Blimp Archives. Going backward got us thinking about other World Class things that people have done that are usually done going forward. like running. And then we found the fastest backward mile run in history.

According to the Guinness Book of World Records, "The fastest mile run backwards is 5 min 54.25 sec and was achieved by Aaron Yoder (USA) in Lindsborg, Kansas, USA, on 23 November 2015. Aaron is the head track and cross country coach at Bethany College in Lindsborg, Kansas, USA"

 

Check out Aaron and get ready for another epic trip backward as we do Z to A starting Monday. Download the Blimp app so you don't miss a minute of it! It's presented to you this year by SIS Bank.
