[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Apollo Ono started as a speed roller skater. Our son did speed roller skating in elementary. Great way for an adhd kid to work out that excess energy![/quote]
And I'll bet your son ate like crazy! Speed skating burns a ton of calories.

And thanks for bringing up Ono. I was mesmerized watching him compete.

We have skate (then 'sock'!) races at the end of general sessions on Saturday mornings. The competitive skaters on quads usually beat out the general public but lose every time to the inline skaters who are often also hockey players. Those guys [i]will[/i] often do [i]both[/i] ice and roller and win even when skating backwards!

A very good friend of ours had three boys who played hockey, which isn't always the easiest here in the South, and they literally traveled all over, including up to Canada. No regrets at the time but now wishes they'd tried their hand at other sports too. It was hockey year-round and the back of her large SUV was always loaded with gear.[/quote]
