Same here. I give her a kiss before my run because I'm not allowed to kiss her when I get back. Cry Her first words after I get back from a run are "don't touch me until you've had a shower".



Isn't it interesting. They always show pictures of sexy models that are all sweaty and it is supposed to be a big turn on. But for some reason, after I come home from a long run all covered with sweat and salt crystals my wife just isn't "interested".

Maybe it's just the women who find the sweat aversive. My dh loves it when I come home sweaty after a run. Evil grin

1. Stinky and sweaty clothes.
2. Running takes away time from my GF.
3. Blogging about my runs.
4. Waking the GF up for those races and early morning runs.

Dislikes: Sweaty visors (doesn't seem to mind the clothes strewn all over the kitchen chairs...), money for shoes (I'm reduced to borrowing money from my 85 year old dad for two of the four pair I go through each year and paying him back slowly...Yes, I have a problem Wink ) and the time it takes (I always seem to pick the least convenient time to run on the weekend when she's off).

Likes: The fact that I'm not a heart attack waiting to happen, this IS my midlife crisis (can't afford the Corvette or 20 y.o. girlfriend) and I'm happy. TC

1.) Don't sweat the small stuff
2.) It's ALL small stuff

I don't know what she hates the most, but here's an annoying question that she asks that I've stopped answeriing!

How many miles is a marathon again? She can't seem to remember that it's 26.2!!! Confused

My husband tries to run a little. Sometimes when he sees someone they tell him that he will never out run his wife.
