Man & His Son With Cerebral Palsy Inspire Millions After Competing In Ironman

When Johnny Agar told his father, Jeff,  he wanted to walk in a race, Jeff was a bit concerned. Born with cerebral palsy, Johnny could not walk, but his father wanted to make his dream come true. Not only has Johnny Agar competed in marathons with the help of his father and crossed the finish line, but the pair also achieved Ironman status. Their story serves as an inspiration to many, a true testament to the love of a father.

Jeff and Johnny Agar dreamed of completing the Ironman race in Kona, Hawaii, and attempted the journey at the end of October. Unfortunately, they did not meet the qualification time for the biking portion and ended up disqualified. Even though they didn’t finish, they made an incredible impact. Ironman posted about Jeff and Johnny Agar on their official Instagram page. View this post on Instagram A post shared by IRONMAN Triathlon (@ironmantri) “Did they finish? No. Did they inspire millions of people? Absolutely. Father & Son duo, Team Agar took on #IMWC Kona once again last weekend but unfortunately did not make the bike course cut off. Even though they did not finish the race, they have inspired countless people with their willingness to take world’s most iconic and toughest IRONMAN races. Team Agar will be back.” Jeff and Johnny Agar made a huge impression on this person, “The pros leave us in awe but these are the people that light that fire and inspire us.” (Photo by Patrick Smith/Getty Images) And this one, “I was cheering so hard for them and sad to hear of the DNF, however, that is nothing to hang your head! They are IRONMEN! They are the heart of what the Ironman motto is, ‘Anything is possible!’ They will be back and finish Kona before we know it, and I will cheer them on all the way there!” (Photo by Patrick Smith/Getty Images) This fan noticed how hard the father worked, “Both are inspiring, but the guy doing an Ironman, while pulling someone else along is insane.” Jeff and Johnny Agar make us all proud and help us realize that we can do anything with love.
