A mate sent me the link to the clip below. Puts things in perspective a bit, doesn't it?
That man is incredible, no other words for it. If only the world was full of people like him in place of the cretins that were on panorama the other night eh.
That had me in tears.
Hugely impressive to complete an Ironman, but that? Words honestly fail me.
Aye not bad.
Astonishing
Legend, absolute legend! I don't even have emotions but welled up a bit.

It's his son IIRC.
What an incredible achievement. I was begining to blub watching that 😀
Inspiring.
Struggling to find words to describe that. It's amazing.
Right, now you're all inspired, put your money and where your hearts are and, help out the UK equivalent Mick and Phil, by sending them a donation.
They've had a tough time, and how they carry on astounds me.
