Your dad sounds like an asshole and id avoid bringing up running. I’d enjoy talking about it. But I wouldn’t want a teaching lesson from someone who has, as far as I know, no credentials or authority on the topic because, if we assume it’s like the post, none were given. Plus I’d rather they find out my level of knowledge before they assume I know nothing. Basic respect. Your dad has none. And you don’t either.
My dad would be that guy, but he’s a running coach and was a marathon runner for like 50 years, so he loves talking about it.
There definitely wouldn’t be any thought of, “you’re a woman so you need advice,” since he’d do the same thing to a man.
In fact, if we actually accept this completely unbelievable story, the fact that he’s pulling stats from Women runners shows he’s not being sexist.
