God’s plan for the journey is often unexpected, and this is certainly true for Cedarville University junior Aaron Perry. Having played soccer for more than a decade, Aaron learned to equate running with discipline. Poor performance on the field or in practice meant running laps, sprints, or stairs. Yet after participating in a marathon during his senior year in high school, running changed for Aaron — from punishment to passion.
Since that first marathon, Aaron has allowed his runner’s high to guide his path along the trails he pounds and to stoke his entrepreneurial fire.
Having completed numerous long-distance runs, including a Rim2Rim run of the Grand Canyon, an ultra-marathon, and a half-ironman triathlon in the wilds of Maine, Aaron knows what runners need. He has taken that hard-earned knowledge and combined it with his drive as a young entrepreneur to create his company, Ultra Lyte Running.
Aaron’s desire is to grow his company with excellence and integrity to earn an audience for sharing the Gospel.
His time as a finance major at Cedarville under the expert instruction of Dr. Kary Oberbrunner, Assistant Professor of Entrepreneurship, combined with his drive to cross the finish line, will undoubtedly lead Aaron on a trail to success.
