I just have to share this!

I just found this incredible video, and have stopped crying long enough to post this.

Back story:

A son asked his father, 'Dad, will you take part in a marathon with me? The father, despite having a heart condition, says 'Yes'.

They went on to complete the marathon together and ran numerous other marathons, the father always saying 'Yes' to his son's request of going through the race together. Together they have climbed mountains, and once trekked 3,735 miles across America.

One day, the son asked his father, 'Dad, let's join the Ironman together.'To which, his father said 'Yes.'

This is that video. [godtube.com]

Youre right. that was a moving video all right.

Was that race the Iron Man?

Ugh. I couldn't watch it. I've seen it before and cried like a baby in church. They played it on FATHERS DAY. Needless to say, there wasn't a dry eye in the house.

Dang, I'm leaking anyway, even though I didn't watch it. :lol:

You would probably enjoy this quick write up about the guy who is blind and completed 7 marathons in 7 days. :shock:
