    Default Truly inspirational... Never, ever give up!

    I just watched this, it's a hair under 5 min, but it truly is heart warming and inspirational... Definitely worth sharing! This guy is amazing!

    That's a nice video... a pleasant diversion from the rest of the world's news. Good for him, and good for the guy helping him get back in shape. I take it he's a Coloradan? Saw the 30H3 shirt...

    No idea where he's from, but he's former Airborne, which is pretty badass. I know a couple of veterans who suffered injuries in their careers and have gained a ton of weight... I sent this to them to give them a glimmer of hope.

    That is a truly motivated man. People like him always make me feel like my chickenshit problems are pretty inconsequential in the grand scheme. He's a badass.

    Well if you didn't let the chickens in the house, they would't shit everywhere, causing you problems...
    I agree... It's like one of the soldiers my mentor in the army had in Iraq before I got in. This guy got blown up by an IED, had half of his face burned, lost his right leg, and has difficulty smelling and tasting. Yet this guy went on to compete in a marathon and does a biathlon every year. Refuses to let his disabilities slow him down, and makes me feel like I'm a lazy asshole who has no problems.
