Need some inspiration?

I found this on a forum I belong to (not a gambling one) I read this and thought "that is good but not that big of a deal" THEN I watched the video that goes along with it and it brought tears to my eyes and a special feeling in my heart! Please don't just read the story below and shrug it off, watch the video and hopefully you too will at least be moved and inspired a little! :eek:

=======================================


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' to.

For those who didn'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.

View this with music. This is priceless!

Really thanks for the video! When I was reading here I thought that what are you talking about but after watching the video, the words took a great meaning.
The priceless moment was when he was finishing the race and that kid was so happy. Parents do all the things in this world for their children.
