Motivational Story, Very Moving

Posted by mhg

Hi All,

I wanted to share this moving video.  Please take some time to read the short story and watch the video afterwards.

Thnx - Matt Henry

“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 Ironman together.’ To which, his father said ‘Yes’.
For those who don’t know, Ironman 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.

Father and son went on to complete the race together.  (The son works at B.U. in the technology department.) ”
