I just thought I'd share an inspiring email I received a few minutes ago.

This is a true story......Read all of this intro and then watch the video.
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.
A co-worker sent this to me a few weeks ago. That kid is very lucky to be loved like he is loved by his father. God has a special place for people like that.

It is amazing how a show of dedication touches many who the dedication was not directed to intentionally. A heart that is touched cannot help but to touch others.
An amazing father...
