i love to

0:04

prove people along

0:06

and i think that

0:08

perseverance has stuck with me from very

0:12

early age

0:14

despite my disability

0:16

i still want to

0:18

tackle everything head-on

0:25

my name is kyle pease

0:27

red peace is my older brother

0:31

bray and i

0:32

do

0:33

a dirty sport together

0:37

when i'm late

0:38

i

0:39

get a feeling of freedom

0:42

kyle is a quadriplegic so all

0:45

four limbs are affected by his cerebral

0:46

palsy that confines kyle to a wheelchair

0:50

what i always try to picture when i'm

0:52

racing with kyle is him getting out of a

0:55

chair and coming behind me and just

0:57

giving me that slight push you know when

0:59

you've been in those endurance races or

1:01

those moments where you just don't feel

1:03

like there's anything more to give you

1:05

know sometimes that little push is all

1:06

you need and kyle's usually there to

1:08

give it

1:11

where

1:12

and i always had to think about

1:19

brent was always the

1:21

the big brother the overprotective

1:24

brother

1:24

what are you doing but as always

1:27

equipment every activity

1:30

whether it was baseball or

1:32

soccer we were always on the same team

1:37

when we graduated from college i got on

1:40

this path to personal fitness and i was

1:42

actually running a lot at the time and i

1:44

built up to an iron man

1:46

after that first iron man in 2010 kyle

1:49

began figuring out how he could get

1:51

involved and you know at one point the

1:53

infamous question he said was can people

1:55

in wheelchairs do iron man and so that

1:57

just created this instant spark

2:00

i said to kyle one time i'll provide the

2:02

legs if he provides the spirit and

2:03

that's really how it's always gone

2:06

we slowly built up the process so we

2:08

started with a 10k running race and then

2:10

we did a half marathon and then we did

2:12

our first triathlon and then we trained

2:15

for this ironman hawaii in 2018

2:20

when i did the ironman world

2:22

championship it was the hardest thing

2:25

that i have ever done

2:27

mentally at physically

2:32

it's a 2.4 mile swim followed by a

2:36

12-mile bike

2:38

and then you do a 26.2 marathon all in

2:42

one day and they give you 17 hours

2:45

when i did it in 14 hours it's 29

2:48

minutes

2:51

the feeling when i go out to finish line

2:54

was truly amazing

2:58

to accomplish something with somebody

3:00

that you love and that you care about is

3:04

really special

3:08

[Music]

3:15

i love my brother to death

3:17

he's helped me do incredible things

3:19

i would have never been in hawaii

3:21

without him i wouldn't be doing the

3:23

boston marathon without him

3:25

he's led me on this incredible journey

3:28

when you see him out there competing

3:30

he's just as intense if not more than

3:32

everybody that's out there i mean i

3:33

always think back to that new york

3:35

marathon when he just had this fire in

3:37

his eyes and he said you can quit but

3:38

i'm going to keep going there's this

3:40

intensity about him

3:42

in racing that is hard to match

3:45

i need kyle's energy

3:46

i need his spirit

3:49

i'm not going to stop nobody's going to

3:51

stop me i think it's the point that we

3:54

all

3:55

take a step back and focus on what we

3:58

have rather than what we don't have and

4:02

focus on the hope to persevere through

4:05

any obstacle that might come

4:08

my way

4:09

or your way
