If you stop by this blog with any regularity, you know I’m training for the Triathlon I’m Not Even Close to Being Ready For. Well, a little motivation came my way in the form of an article.
Hubs had gone to Sam’s Club and brought home an issue of the company’s free magazine. I rarely read those things but this one had a cover photo that grabbed my attention. A father was pushing his adult son in a special type of wheel chair. I read the article and learned about Team Hoyt. Dad Dick has pushed son Rick through more than 1,000 races including Ironman triathlons and the Boston Marathon. I can’t imagine the level of strength and endurance it would take to accomplish such feats, but love will cause a person to do incredible things.
I went on line and found the Hoyt’s website. Here’s the link. Give it a read. I bet you’ll be inspired as well.
