This touching and inspiring video tells the story of how the adversity of cerebral palsy has been overcome by the pure unconditional love of a father for his son.
Team Hoyt is a father (Dick Hoyt) and son (Rick Hoyt) from Massachusetts who compete together in marathons, triathlons, and other athletic endeavors. Rick has cerebral palsy, caused by loss of oxygen to his brain at birth because his umbilical cord was wrapped around his neck. Dick pulls him in a special boat as they swim, carries him in a special seat up front as they bike, and pushes him in a special wheelchair as they run.
