To All Those Great Dads Out There


As an expecting father and the son of an awesome dad, we give you this tear-jerking (seriously, grab a Kleenex) music video of Dick & Rick Hoyt. Courtesy of SI's Rick Reilly: "Eighty-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."

Happy Father's Day, Dad. You may not have pushed me in a wheelchair 85 times for 26.2 miles, but you've taught me what it means to be a truly great dad.

And now back to your regularly scheduled Mr. Heavyfoot content. This video has nothing to do with fathers, unless it was dad who taught this cute little girl those cute little phrases.
