    when he was pulling him through the water and carried him over the shore, that was it for me. thats going on pure love. theres no way the body and mind at that guys age could handle that feat under any other circumstances. his love for his son was the only way he would be able to do that and nothing else and that was awesome.

    Pretty damn cool. They looked like they were hauling some serious ass toward the end too. :eek:

    Anyone else think at times the dad looked kind of like Craig Sager from the NBA on TNT crew?

    I read about this story. The great thing is that before he started pushing his son he was fat and out of shape. He tried and got tired, but everyday tried again. Finally he got himself in enough shape to run an entire race. Then started to swim and ride too.
    And then he had a heart attack that doctors said would have killed him if he wasn't so in shape. So it turned out they saved each others life.
    Great story.
