Subject: A Fathers love for his son... WOW!
READ STORY FIRST

A son asked his father, 'Dad, will you take part in a marathon with
me?!'. The father who, despite having a heart condition, says 'Yes'.
They went on to complete the marathon together. Father and son went on
to join other marathons, the father always saying 'Yes' to his son's
request of going through the race together. One day, the son asked his
father, 'Dad, let's join the Ironman together.' To which, his father
said 'Yes' too.

For those who don't know, Ironman is the toughest triathlon ever.
The race encompasses three endurance events of a 2.4 mile (3.86
kilometer) ocean swim, followed by a 112 mile (180.2 kilometer) bike
ride, and ending with a 26.2 mile (42.195 kilometer) marathon along the
coast of the Big Island. Father and son went on to complete the race
together. View this race at.....

Godtube?! Wha the hell?! I'm not watching that until you promise me that it will be cool, not cheesy, and will not try to convert me in any way.

[Arashi]

Pfff! I wouldn't try to convert you. It's not really cheesy and it doesn't have a Christian base. It's kind of sappy, perhaps, but I still found it kind of cool.

[Hippie Van]

That's sweet. It is really sappy, but whatever. That must be pretty difficult to do.

[Harkovast]

I don't know if I want to look.
It was reading like the lead in to a really tasteless joke, but now I know it has a sappy ending I will just be left disappointed.

"GODTUBE WILL PURGE THE HERETIC!"

[Arashi]

PUUUUUUUUUURGE!!! >: D

[Arashi]

Heh, appropriate for father's day.

[Hippie Van]

Speaking of, you guys do anything special for father's day?!

I made my dad an 80s cd, then we went to the beach.

[Arashi]

My family went to my aunt's house where a few of our other relatives also came to visit to celebrate my grandfather's father's day. I also called my dad who's on the road, playing in Buffalo, NY, and my grandfather who's still at his house in VA.

Other than that, I didn't really do anything special.
