Choking up

Charlie Gordon's picture

Despite the syrupy music, I defy anyone not to be moved by this vid of a man doing the iron man with his disabled son.

That was lovely...

thanks for posting it.

Here's a translation of the text....

Look how strong a father's love for his son can be.

'One day a son says to his father "Dad, do you want to run a marathon with me?" And the father said "Yes!".

Once again the son asks "Dad, do you want to run a marathon with me?" And the father said "Yes, my son!"

One day the son asks his father "Dad, do you want to run the Ironman with me?" And the father said "Yes!"

The Ironman is the most difficult triathlon that exists (4km swimming, 180km cycling and 42km running).

The story seems simple. Until one watches these images...
