The Inspiring Story of Rick and Dick Hoyt

This video shows the inspiring story of Rick and Dick Hoyt (Team Hoyt):


When I am running, my disability seems to disappear. It is the only place where truly I feel as an equal. Due to all the positive feedback, I do not feel handicapped at all. Rather, I feel that I am the intelligent person that I am with no limits. I have a message for the world which is this: To take time to get to know people with disabilities for the individuals they are.

What I’m doing is loaning Rick my arms and legs so he can be out there competing like everybody else. There is nothing in the world that the both of us can’t conquer together.

    By far,if not the most inspiring story,certainly in the top 5.makes me ashamed that I ever complain about my illness or anything else in my life.I will use this video as my inspiration every day,and pray that someday I could meet these two men,and treasure the memory of being in the presence of greatness.
