That was a great line in the vid.

I also liked the instructions to his running buddies....."Don't call 911 until your sure I'm dead"

I wish I watched this vid before I headed out for my run this morning. I would like to think I wouldn’t have sucked out on my intervals.

Crazy inspiring (and touching) video.
