Last blog- I mentioned 17 Hours to Glory. Once chapter recounts Team Hoyt, Dick Hoyt and his son Rick's experience with Kona and their amazing story of love and living.
For Dick to push 100 pound Rick and his chair- if it weighed 58 pounds, the 26.2 miles of a marathon after having pulled him in a buoy in the swim, and rode with him on the bike... and to do it in a time that many solo age group athletes would dream about...makes you think it must be a possibility for any of us willing to commit to it. Dick and Rick's marathon times rivaled age group winners.
For the rest of us to be too scared to tri, or to participate? Makes me a little embarrassed to think about the self-limiting beliefs we each have. Over their career of participation they tried and failed more than once, but never ever gave up. They always returned to the site of any unfinished business. They got it done and then moved on.
To that spirit.
