He would run even faster if he ran backwards in time!
@zer0nix
January 24, 2024 at 9:50 pm
I’m sure I can run backwards faster than this guy, but I don’t know that I can keep it up for 3 miles! I picked up the habit after reading that it’s actually better for the knees, and it certainly does feel better!
Edit: ah he speeds up later in the vid

Bruh is running backwards basically blind like he never heard of a mirror.
This activity begs for a special helmet to cushion the back of the head in case of a fall.
