Ironman Dad.
« on: October 04, 2010, 05:25:58 AM »
Weary asked me to post this.

Iron Dad

This story is very touching!  It definitely puts things in perspective for us all!  Have some tissues nearby!  A reminder to us all to not give up, keep the Faith, and continue to rely on God’s strength in all circumstances …!
 
One day, a son said to his father:
 
“Dad, would you like to run a marathon with me?” and the father replied “yes.” They ran their first marathon together.
 
Another day, the son said to  the father:  “Dad, would you
run the Ironman with me?”
 
The ironman is a triathlon the most enduring that exists: 4km swim, 180km bicycle ride, and 42 km run.
And the father answered, “Yes.”

The story seems simple. Until you watch this video:

The real measure of a man's character is what he would do if he knew he would never be found out.
