Just saw this thread. Yes, Kai has never gotten injury free and is no longer running. He has done well in school though and is still at Wisconsin.
Our track record for kids who have run in college has been probably what would be expected from kids from a program that develops them well in high school. Most have improved in college and been top runners on their teams at times. Check out stats for Andy Kimple, Jeff Howard, Katie Knight, Casey Adams, Vince Hamilton. none have become college superstars, but none showed up with insane talent either. As for the rumors of insane mileage, we laugh every time we hear about it. We do put in a lot more work than the average program, but more in terms of consistent year around work in many different areas.
