Dang! I can't see YouTube from here :flamemad:

I saw this story on the TV waaaay back before internet. It talked about running marathons and I remember it showed the bike rig. I don't remember seeing anything about swimming, but if the bike rig was for triathalon, then I'm sure the story must have covered that as well. I didn't realize they'd gotten so old. Oh, yeah. I've gotten old too

O.K. I admit it. I am officially a wimp now....

 

[MrMrsXJ]

Thats awsome!!!
My sister sent that in an e-mail a while back. I remembered seeing it before so i didn't watch it again. I know I am too much of a wimp to have done that.
What an awsome story though.

ok, so my eyes have cleard up enough to type this now! To know that level of love or devotion is truly devine, and if there were a few more people like that in this world it to would be.

Bryant Gumbel did a story on them on HBO's Real Sports. It was a good story then too. Although watching it, you kind of think to yourself, come on. However, in the interview, they really have something good. His son can communicate fine through his computer. He certainly enjoys being out with his Dad doing that, and his father say he can only do it because of him. His son pushes him during the races and keeps him going. It really changed both of their lives. Good story. Humbling.
