This story is about an australian man, who participated in the Ironman contest with his son, who was born with brain problems.
The father did not see the illness of his son as a hurdle, he trained hard, and took part in the Ironman.
This contest is for strong people, with great willingness of winning. Finishing the Ironman is on the limit of human capabilities.
Ironman has 3 parts, and almost always starts at dawn:
- swimming 4km in the freezing morning cold
- bicycle 180km up and down the hills
- running the marathon distance of 42.5 km
This trial is not just incredebly hard physically, but mentally as well.
The worlds fastest times are around 8h15min, the man on the video finished the trial with his son in 17 hours.
I just wanted to share this video with you, it is an unbeleivable motivation for everybody for the life, does not matter if you are also a sportman or not.
