Eleven years ago, I wrote a blog post introducing Baby NMA<\/a> to the world.

Well, to our<\/em> world. Which back then encompassed about 500 readers of my year-old blog.

That baby \u2014 my son, Holden \u2014 isn\u2019t a baby anymore. But he\u2019s more a No Meat Athlete than ever \u2014 he\u2019s been vegan since age 2, and vegetarian before that, and he\u2019s a better athlete than either my wife or I ever was.

We\u2019ve known for years that Holden is a special athlete, but I was hesitant to write about him here for a few reasons, mostly just privacy and his young age.

But given his soccer accomplishments, I\u2019d put him in the \u201cserious athlete\u201d category, and now that his own online presence has grown (follow him on Instagram at @mountainfootballkid<\/a>), I figured it was the appropriate time to share a little bit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
