Cried buckets when I watched this, especially 1:30 and 2:56. Taken from JF.
[Following Text is From JD]
A son asked his father, ‘Dad, will you take part in a marathon with me?’
The father who, despite having a heart condition, said ‘Yes’.
They went on to complete the marathon together.
Father and son went on to join other marathons, with the father always saying ‘Yes’ to his son’s requests of going through the races together.
One day, the son asked his father, ‘Dad, let’s join the Ironman together’, to which his father said ‘Yes’ to.
For those not in the know, Ironman is the toughest triathlon ever. The race encompasses three endurance events of a 2.4 mile (3.86km) ocean swim, followed by a 112 mile (180.2 km) bike ride, and ending with a 26.2 mile (42.195 km) marathon along the coast of the Big Island.
Father and son went on to complete the race together.
