We were only referring to the endurance running component you described. He'll still benefit from an age appropriate strength training program and plain old playing outside.

I will have to try to hard to convince the dad, but I will let him read your replies.
Whenever I see the kid outside he is always on a regular bicycle or motorcycle. He looks very fragile (thin, almost pale)though I am sure he is pretty tough for his age. Since I don't train him, I have no idea what his abilities are, just talked to the dad about it.
Thanks again and I will keep you posted on what happened.
