A Triathlon Video To Inspire You Today

Posted by Jozzua on Jul 31, 2008 in Travel & Entertainment3 comments

A friend sent me this today.

First, the email message:

A son asked his father, ‘Dad, will you take part in a marathon with me?’

The father who, despite having a heart condition, says ‘Yes’. They went on to complete the marathon together. Father and son went on to join other marathons, the father always saying ‘Yes’ to his son’s request of going through the race together. One day, the son asked his father, ‘Dad, let’s join the Iron man together.’

To which, his father said ‘Yes’ .

For those who don’t know, Iron man is the toughest triathlon ever. The race encompasses three endurance events of a 2.4 mile (3.86 kilometer) ocean swim, followed by a 112 mile (180.2 kilometer) bike ride, and ending with a 26.2 mile (42.195 kilometer) marathon along the coast of the Big Island.

Next, the video:

I am speechless.

And probably something I’d be stupid enough to do as well.
