This video is a sad, but very inspirational video. This video is a story about Dick and Rick Hoyt. Dick and Rick Hoyt have been a team for many years. Together they compete in marathons and triathlons across the country. What makes this story so inspirational is Rick has spastic quadriplegic with cerebral palsy. Rick cannot talk and has lived in a wheelchair his whole life meaning he cannot walk. In 1977, Rick told his dad that he wanted to compete in a 5 mile run. His dad agreed to push Rick in a wheelchair the whole 5 miles. After that race, Rick told his dad that when he runs he does not feel like his is handicapped. Ever since that race, Dick and Rick have been competing in races, and they both have enjoyed every minute they compete in together. This video changed my life and I hope when you watch the video, it changes your life too.
