This is a great topic of discussion for us.
When does working out and training for an event take too much time away from family?
Is it different if your spouse isn't a swimmer or athletic?
How does your spouse feel about how much you train each week?
What comprimises have you made?

What's funny is I trained with Jordan (featured in the article) on Thursday July 5th, 2007 at Asphalt Green in NYC, he gave me a ride back by my hotel which was pretty close to his office. Very nice guy.

This subject always makes me smile , combine sport with marriage.:bitching:
Being a marriage non believer , incapable of losing most of my freedom , incapable of imagining long term commitments (around age 22 decided would not have children) always astonished , positively, people being able to make vows. :bow:Any successful situation involving children , marriage and sport is fabulous:cheerleader:
Most of the situation have seen one of the partners always give more than the other, there is some resentment:bolt:
Mostly humans want the whole successful package: job, family, sport, freedom, immortality:blah:
