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?
2011 WSJ Article:
A Workout Ate My Marriage
Exercise Can Set Off Conflict About Family, Free Time; Errands vs. English Channel
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.

let the fact that the same person who owns fox news also owns the WSJ be your guide as to how factual this article might be.
i did a lot of training with jordan this year, and we both swam to france in the shadow of the Pace Arrow. it certainly required a big commitment, and none of us could achieve success without the full support of family and friends, and since this is the 21st century, it is quite easy to keep in close contact with loved ones back home while we are holed up in dover... waiting for the call.
