Team Hoyt is a father (Dick Hoyt) and son (Rick Hoyt) team from Massachusetts who have competed together in various athletic endeavors, including marathons and triathlons. Team Hoyt began in 1977 when Rick became inspired by an article on racing he saw in a magazine. After their first race Rick said, "Dad, when I'm running, it feels like I'm not handicapped." As of February 2008, the Hoyts had competed in 958 endurance events, including 65 marathons and six Ironman triathlons. They had run the Boston Marathon 25 times.
