Dick and Rick Hoyt, a father and son team who have been participating in races together for more than 30 years, were presented the Jimmy V Perseverance Award at The 2013 ESPYS on July 17. Rick, now 51, was born with cerebral palsy and though unable to use his hands or legs he and his 73-year-old father have run in more than 1,000 endurance events—including triathlons (6 Ironmans) and marathons (70) —with Dick pushing his son in a custom-made running chair.

YES YOU CAN.
