本期內(nèi)容介紹:

據(jù)外媒報(bào)道,一位39歲叫Rick van Beek的男子,抱著他因腦癱而無法動彈的女兒參加鐵人三項(xiàng)的比賽,因?yàn)樵谥挥袔讉€月嬰兒意識的女兒為數(shù)不多能表達(dá)清楚的意愿中,他深愛的女兒更喜歡呆在戶外呼吸新鮮的空氣,并且在觀看馬拉松等體育項(xiàng)目時臉上會露出喜悅的笑容。于是這位偉大的父親一路帶著女兒完成了常人都難以完成的鐵人三項(xiàng)運(yùn)動。

“她是我的心,我是她的腿?!薄拔抑浪矚g待在戶外、喜歡戶外運(yùn)動,這是我僅知道的,所以我要幫她實(shí)現(xiàn)這個愿望。”

Van Beek, 39, told the Midland Daily News that he wants to complete the events with his daughter, who is unable to walk or talk, because she adores being outside.

'She functions like a three-month-old, and one of the very few things that we know she enjoys is being outside, being in the water, feeling the breeze in her hair and in her face,' he said.
