Worlds Strongest Dad

Strongest Dad in the World [From Sports Illustrated, By Rick Reilly] Eighty-five times he's pushed his disabled son, Rick, 26.2 miles in marathons. Eight times he's not only pushed him 26.2 miles in a wheelchair but also towed him 2.4 miles in a dinghy while swimming and pedaled him 112 miles in a seat on the handlebars--all in the same day.

your welcome man, just an unbelivable story, I cant see how the guy at his age can not only finish a marathon plus while carrying his son with him, but continously do them each year.. I guess he used to be in the navy or army I cant remember..
