My kids are good athletes and runners. They run in a bunch of sports.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Encourage kids to enjoy running and play in athletics. Don't force them to run too much competition.
Most of my family are good athletes.
Kids can have great passion and great ability but if you have the facilities for your particular sport that can give you the inspiration to become a sportsman.
When I was a little boy, I always wanted to run. I loved competing with my friends.
I think we should bring up our children with much less pressure to compete and get ahead: no comparing one child with another, at home or in school; no grades. Let athletics be primarily for fun, and let them be organized by children and youths themselves.
I know many people who are actually queasy about the idea that their kids may harbour sporting ambitions.
I always said I wanted to be a great athlete, ever since I was an overweight little kid. I just love competing in any kind of athletics.
It's so important for kids to get involved with sports in general at a young age.
I was one of those kids who, everything I tried sports-related, I liked.
My kids are athletic, but they don't run.
