One Word 'Can'
Iron Man Hawaii and a very special kind of love and determination.
The story goes like this ..........
One day a son asked his father: "Dad, would you run a marathon with me?" The father says: "Yes," and they run their first marathon together. Sometime later the son asked his father again, "Dad, would you run another marathon with me?" and again the father says: "Yes, son," and they run their second marathon together. After the marathon, the son asked his father: "Dad, would you like to do an Iron-Man Triathlon with me?" (Iron-Man = 4km swimming, 180km bicycle, 42 km run). And again, the father says, "Yes."
This is a snapshot of their story. One word ; 'can'.

An unbelievably moving show of devotion by a father for his disabled son. Not to mention the incredible effort required to complete a triathlon whilst pushing / pulling / carrying another person. Pure 'No Can't Do' if ever I saw it!

I'm not an emotional man. In fact, my missus regularly informs me that I'm numb.
This clip proves otherwise. Without doubt one of the most inspirational things I have ever seen. If you're not moved? Have a kid of your own and by God, you will be.
