Yes wow, a wife (?) who listens about running distances and paces, and a husband who does really easy runs. Awesome!

He has a serious addiction. This addiction, like all others, is a disease that has no cure, but can only be managed in order to restore the sanity of both himself and those who love him. He should first be admitted to an in-patient facility for acute addiction treatment where he can be medicated heavily while going through detox. Thereafter, he will need close and frequent outpatient observation and treatment by mental health specialists with experience in managing this devastating condition. A great resource for him, as well as your entire family, is Run-On&On. It is a support group to help families, like your own, deal with this horrible and chronic condition moving forward. Understand that relapses are common, and you can't change your husband - change has to come from within - but having the support of friends and family is critical to his success. My thoughts and prayers are with both you and your husband in your journey through these difficult times.
Based on the fact that your “husband” runs at 6:30 pace, I’ll assume that you are a lesbian couple….
Now of course he could be SAYING he is out running a 100 miles a week... but not really running 100 miles a week.
This post seems fake and written by a man (or more likely a typical letsrun manchild) but for the sake of argument I will pretend it is real.
100 mpw at 6:30 pace is 10.5 hours a week. Even if you add 4 hours for warm-up and cool down that is less than 15 hours a week. Unless you have a bunch of young children that seems very manageable and similar to people who go to the gym every day when you take into account the commute, etc.
Maybe you have a sexless marriage but I can tell you my stamina and performance was much improved when I was running over 60 mpw and I imagine 100 mpw would make it moreso.

Exactly. Does he have a female "coach"?
If he can’t make love to you endlessly that’s a problem then🤣🤣

How much time does he spend running and showering? 2 hours a day?
Now that we have that figure, please take a log of how much time in a given week you spend on your phone. Betting odds are that the number exceeds his time running.
As an aside, do you know why people love selfies? Because their subconscious is telling them to look in the mirror.

That's roughly 11 hours per week, or 1.5 hours per day. Not too bad at all.
A lot of people spend more time in the gym trying to improve their aesthetics in order to "impress" people who don't know they exist. Then they waste hours on social media everyday.
What's your definition of a winner?

Old time thread.
Could be worse. You could be married to Jason Kelce who ignores his wife and daughter to go get drunk at football tailgates.

You know, maybe he should stop running. Then he could sit on the couch and play video games. Let's add some junk food and alcohol in there because that would make the couch time much more enjoyable. Maybe he's consider smoking tobacco, too. After a while, he's transformed into an average American overweight slob, increasing his risk for type 2 diabetes and the plethora of diseases that result from circulatory system disorders. Before you know it, his medical bills will start to increase, adversely affecting the family budget. He won't have the energy to do anything, so he'll just lounge around even more to rest and get healthier. There will be an increased demand on you, wifey, to step up and work harder, save more aggressively, and get everything done because your husband no longer has the fitness to do much of anything.
Stop whining and be grateful that your husband is an athletic outlier. Try to understand the drive, commitment, and dedication it takes to exercise that much. Try to see the positive and spin this into a sense of pride that your husband is an athlete with an outrageously robust aerobic system. And stop complaining that he showers 3x per day. At least he showers and tries to maintain hygiene. And if you can't do that, I hope he wakes up and realizes that he deserves someone better. Other than continuing to run, the best thing he could do is divorce your ass and move on.
Ill take "sh*t that didnt happen" for 500 Alex
To go on a public platform to berate your husband after you sworn a covenant for each to love, protect, and serve disqualifies you as a spouse /wife. He should leave you regardless of his running habits. You don't deserve him or any relationship. You are toxic.
What is running’s real name?

*looser not loser
Just to entertain the post, 100mpw is less than 15 miles per day. At 6:30 pace like the subject says that's 93 minutes per day. Probably a little more time than necessary, but isn't it good to exercise an hour per day? Even factoring in those three showers and time putting in the gel, there are 22 other hours each day.
