Ok so not only does my wife kinda support my running, which hasn't been much lately, but she also comes up wife amazing gifts. Yesterday was our 2 year anniversary and this is what she presented to me as my gift. I knew that she was up to something when my bib and medal were gone but I had no clue as to how amazing it would be. Without further ado....

Hope that you all enjoy it as much as I do. I think that I am going to hang it in the game room

    That is REALLY cool! What a neat thing for her to make for you. I'd say she more than just "kinda" supports your running. Smile

    I'm gonna steal that idea for my wife's medal/bib. I was so proud of her fiinishing her first marathon. Heck, I was proud she even wanted to do it.

    I love it!

    (But I kinda want to see a picture of what she wrote on the far side of the frame. There's something about sinewy legs . . .)

    Thanks for sharing, Jeremy.

    Wow, scrapbooking and Walt Whitman. Hold on to her, and do it tightly. And, because I think I forgot, happy anniversary. Hoping for many happy years for both of you, supporting each other in whatever pursuits, individual and together, make you smile the most.

    Just wait until you get like 20 of those things, lol. If she keeps it up you'll have a shrine room. My wife talked about doing that when I finished my first marathon, now she's wondering out loud if there is a box we can put them in and stash out of sight. Hell no, I say.... Big grin
