[quote=Anonymous]DH and I were lightly active in high school, he was more so than me. I did go to state in track/field though. We are both from big families and back in the day there just weren't the sports opportunities there are now and we didn't devote that much time to our after school activities. Fast forward to our teens, each of whom as fallen for a sport or highly physical activity and both are amazing athletes. It's pretty weird to have kids that are athletically gifted after not being super active ourselves - or competing at super high levels. We didn't realize what was happening until it was too late as we weren't crazy signing up for travel, clinics, this and that. Personally while I appreciate the benefits they are receiving, it's not at all what I would have chosen from a family lifestyle perspective - so time consuming, costly, etc. Hate that aspect and would have tried to cut it off before it grew into the monster that it now is.
