Ironmen

This is probably one of the most moving stories I have ever heard/seen:

READ THIS BRIEF STORY BEFORE WATCHING THE SHORT VIDEO:

A son asked his father, 'Dad, will you do a marathon with me?'

The father, despite having a heart condition, says 'Yes'.

They went on to complete the marathon together.

Father and son went on to complete 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 do 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 (3.86kilometer) 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, Hawaii.

Father and son went on to complete the race together.
