No matter how hard it seems,
the longer you persist
the more likely your success.
~ Jack CanfieldStrongest Dad in the World
by Rick ReillyEighty-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.
Dick’s also pulled him cross-country skiing, taken him on his back mountain climbing and once hauled him across the U.S. on a bike.
Makes taking your son bowling look a little lame, right?
And what has Rick done for his father?
Not much – except save his life.
