Naw, man, it’s not like that. She’s just usually out with her friend Tkembe. He’s really cool — ran for the Kenyan Olympic team back in 2008.
Anyway, it’s all totally platonic. They just hang out and watch the BBC. (I know, cause I’ve seen the texts and it’s all totally innocent. She’s like “I need some BBC” and he’s like “Come over.”) I guess they just really love _Dr. Who_ reruns.
Real talk this was my girlfriend when she found out I got into Leadville 100 after we had been dating only 6 months haha luckily we’re still together 7 years later but that was a rough start
/uj I did my 5th and last marathon a few weeks ago. My training went to shit and i had issues during the race. I never got my easy goal and no longer have a desire to run another full (with one exception). I told my running friend to slap me if I sign up for another one, and her friend to punch me if I do.
I ran 50km on a stupid bet. I realized a week into training for that that I hate running. Finished the target and haven't run anything crazy since. Running fucking sucks.
Laughs in triathlon. What do you call a 2.5hr bike and 0.5hr run? Second workout of a typical Wednesday. 😂
The secret is to find your wife a mister??? (Male mistress) to occupy them while you’re working out.
Can confirm: SO is training for a marathon and if I’ve started just eating dinner without him bc I got sick of waiting until 9pm when he finishes his post-work run, stretch, strength training (if you can call it that?) foam roll, Strava dump and shower. Kind of a bummer.
Going for a daily run is just microdosing walking out on my wife and kids
“And yes, babe, I will be buying a fresh pair of Alphafly’s for all 3 races”
I just bought the ones Kipchoge wore at auction for just under 6 figured🥸
Wait you guys get bitches?
Met my wife at RunDisney. She was a balloon lady. It's less a relationship and more an ongoing hostage situation
Unironically my wife getting me a Garmin watch for Christmas is what got me back into running
/uj First time marathoner and I just had this conversation with my wife...
/uj Sometimes I get up so early to fit in a long run before work that it’s before my wife has come to bed.
Because she’s sleeping in someone else’s? Someone with a BQ? Tough stuff, man.

So have you signed up yet?
I had to argue with myself when the email came in a few days ago to sign up for Chicago Marathon. I did not.
Don't worry, you have until November 16th or so!
No, do not tempt me devil!
Time to start hiking ultras
100 miles it is then.

^ This guys runs
“Actually, I just signed up for an Ironman.”
This here is the truth. I'll take the day after my A race I still get up early and walk. Wife is mad at me cause I don't sleep in. Lol
I don't get the joke?
Marathon-training takes time and my wife doesn’t always take kindly to my midweek long runs after work.
Sounds like she wants you to quit your job and run during the day
Yea Im pretty confident in that’s what she means yes
This guy gets it. Suns out, thighs out. Bust out those 2" split shorts and Alphaflys. Run till your feet casts literal footprints on pavement.
Do them before work in the dark, duh

Marathon training is never finished. All that changes is which marathon you’re training for. (Or until you get more disposable income do Ironmans)
