A Triathlon To See.
May 8, 2008
Erik from Irish Calvinist put up this post this week he writes:
I received a link to this video the other day and was pretty moved. I guess it happened a year or so ago. The Hoyts compete in triathlons together. Let me remind you that this is 26.2 miles of running, 112 miles of bicycling, and 2.4 miles of swimming. Together they have climbed mountains, and once trekked 3,735 miles across America.
I am not sure of their spiritual background or why this song is playing on the video, but nevertheless the video makes me think of this love that Mr Hoyt has for his son and the coming redemption of our sinfully plagued flesh. In short, this video reminded me to ‘groan’ in the Romans 8 sense.
