A true story.

One day a son asks his father: "Daddy, will you run the marathon with me?" The father answers yes and both run their first marathon together.

One day, the son asks his father if he wants to run the marathon with him again and the father answers yes. They both run the marathon together again.

Then one day the son asks his father: "Daddy, will you run the Ironman with me?" (the Ironman is the toughest...it requires a 4km swim, 180km biking and 42km running). The father says yes again. This all sounds easy...but check this video.


Simply wonderful.

The Hoyt's are amazing, have used them in assembly a fair few times!
If you follow on FB they regularly do all kind of events accross US.
 
Oops, I feel bad now I've seen the video. As you say, inspirational stuff indeed.
 
Very inspirational, and testament to the bond fathers and sons should have, although these two are exceptional.
 
Wow, anyone got a spare dry handkerchief I can borrow?
