A Story too Beautiful not to share...

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” too.

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. Here is the video:

Grabe it realy touch my heart.. thanks for sharing kapatid..

WOW HEART BREAKING YAN BRO...................GREAT DAD...............

napakadakilang ama niya....thanks for sharing papa TGP!

This father-and-son team is known as "Team Hoyt". They are from Massachusetts and together they have competed in many marathon races and triathlons. Yes, even that triathlon that requires superhuman efforts of running 26.2 miles, cycling 112 miles and swimming 2.4 miles.

You see son Rick is a spastic quadriplegic, cerebral palsy, non-speaking person. For the past 25 years or more, devoted and super dedicated dad has pushed and pulled his non-talking and non-walking son across America over hundred of finish lines.

David Tereshchuk, a documentary television producer writes, "When his dad runs, Rick is in a wheelchair that his dad is pushing. When Dad cycles, Rick is in the seat-pod from his wheelchair, attached to the front of the bike. When Dad swims, Rick is in a small but heavy, firmly stabilized boat being pulled by his Dad."

grabe. bato ang di umiyak dito.........hu hu hu .............best father ever...........

pano nalang kaya yong son pag namatay na ang tatay

grabe talaga ang love ng parents s kanilang mga anak..

i think lahat naman siguro or most of us, pare-pareho un intense ng pagmamahal sa mga anak, as in sobra at unconditional talaga.. nagkakaiba lang kasi kung pano natin iparamdam, i-guide at ibigay ang pangangailangan ng mga anak natin.

kaiyak naman e2.. i am so thankful to God that my kids are all healthy, that's what i always ask of Him.
