Derek had the option of quitting at that very moment. Officials were running to his side. He could have easily bowed out of the race and quit.
But he pressed on. At the finish line, he recieved a standing ovation from over 65,000 in attendance, and the act of the one man, his father, who broke through security inspired millions.
This is a powerful message...one of persevering in a dream, persisting at something even when it hurts and seems impossible. And it's an inspiring story about the supportive foundation of people who believed in Derek! Yet it was Derek himself who made the decision to finish.
