Hello Everyone,
Someone sent me an email with this video and it really made me think in many different ways.
Commitment....
What really is commitment?
Am I really committed?
When I heard this story and watched the video… well, let’s just say it will really make you think! Oh yeah, and if you are not at least teary eyed by the end, something is seriously wrong with you!
This guy shows what the word commitment really means!
Here is the true story…
The 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 his son’s request of going through the race together.
One day, the son asked his father, ‘Dad, let’s join 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 (3.86 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.
