Touching Story

I just read from a email from my friends, it is regarding a touching story of a father and son......

FATHER & SON….. Following videoclip

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.

PLEASE WATCH THE VIDEO IT PUTS A WHOLE NEW VIEW ON THIS STORY! It is just over 4 minutes long, worth a watch!
