Hoping to find more activities he could do with his son, Luo Shujian says he became inspired by the story of American Dick Hoyt. Hoyt, dubbed by some as &#8220;the greatest father in the United States,&#8221; is widely known in running circles for competing with his own disabled son, pushing him in a wheelchair through marathons, as well as Ironman triathalons.<\/p>\n<p>Luo Shujian says he began following in Hoyt&#8217;s footsteps in 2015, and took up a schedule of 4am wake-ups to take his son on runs with him as he began training to complete a marathon. Noting that his son enjoys watching people run along side him, Luo has since completed 36 different road races across China.<\/p>\n<p class=\"pcenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/img3.zhytuku.meldingcloud.com\/images\/zhycms_chinaplus\/20181127\/0f188cf0-a8e5-4c39-8ca2-5f3a1efc4ed1.jpg?x-oss-process=image\/resize,w_650\" alt=\"Luo Shujian pushes his son during an international marathon in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province on November 1, 2015.
