Get The Tissues Ladies...

My wonderful girlfriend Pam sent this to me. I was not sure how to post it as a video but here is the story and the link for the video....truly amazing!

**READ STORY FIRST 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 hisson's request of going through the race together. One day, the son asked his father, 'Dad, let's join the Ironman together.' To which, hisfather 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. View this race at..... NOW GET A KLEENEX THEN WATCH THIS VIDEO:
