Poster: Dad was a cool guy
Subject: RE: New Dad here--how do I get my kids to become (great) runners?
Body:

The best thing to do is keep them active, keep running yourself, and never push them into running.

My dad was a 4:23 miler in high school and a 1:50 guy in college, and he never pushed me into running, although I knew he loved it. I played football and basketball up until freshman year of high school when I joined the track team to get rid of a bit of extra flub, I ended up loving it and now I'm not half bad!

I've run 4:27 and 1:55 flat as a junior and I've got some D1 schools after me!
