Just moments after finishing a marathon with a new PR.
"Can we go shopping this afternoon"
Moments after finishing a 1/2 marathon in near 80 degree heat.
"Eeeewwwwww, you're all sweaty"
After a disappointing race performance.
"Don't worry honey, I've always loved turtles." (Ouch that hurt)
"You better be able to walk back to the car. I'm not haulin' yer sorry ass all that way." So loving.
i was waiting for a friends wife to finish a half marathon once and standing near the finish line. i heard some ~5-6yr old kid say to his old many struggling to finish "it took you long enough."
ouch.
When I finished my first marathon, I found my wife phucking the race director in the back seat of our Suburban. I divorced the whore 3 months later.
OK. You win.
Why do you think I comped your entry jackass
Not during a race, but during a road tempo. I was going strong with my running partner when I started to drop him at the 2 mile mark (or four). It was just his luck his wife happened to drive by just when he cracked and started to drop back. She honked and waved as she drove by. Later that night she said to him... "Kevin sure was kicking your ass today."
Are you reading this Erik? Remember?!?! I'll never let you live that one down buddy!!! See you at noon for our run!!! Oh and yes, I know this means we are going hard today...
"Is this your last Marathon?"
"Thank God, this is finally over, can we finally go home?"
"Do we have to stay for the awards ceremony?"
"At least I am somewhat glad you are a decent runner. I could not imagine having to wait any longer."
[:~)
This was actually during my 1st marathon at the 19 mile mark. My husband was there yelling "OK, this is it this is what you put all the miles in for right here....you're looking good". It was really helpful at that point in the race to see a familiar face reminding me of all of my hard work and it really helped me mentally stay determined to get my goal time. I was trying to qualify for the Olympic Trials and I ended up just missing.
He also sent me inspirational qoutes the week leading up to the marathon via email from work..............He is a sweetie!
He has also called me a stud before to his friends/family and I think that is funny!
My wife came up to me and said "How are you doing?" I blew my lunch roght on her. Serves her right!
"You looked great out there, I am glad you always win, I would hate to be married to a loser. Lets go home and eat pasta, drink beer and watch football... all week."
During a 5 mile training run my wife came driving by me. Seeing her I picked my pace up. Thinking I am looking pretty good. Later when I got home I was expecting, Wow you are fast. But instead I got, boy you barely pick up your feet.Crushed me and brought me down to reality.
The usual question from my wife is, "How many women beat you?" She likes to keep me humble.

Grow up Bitch!
I posted a couple of coach's quotes...and I guess I have one for here also. Indoor meet in college and my girlfriend was there watching. I was sitting with her and some of her friends after my race. The sprinters had just finished and were walking back past us. One of the guys in a one piece uniform took off the top and had it around his waiste and was pretty cut.
She looked at me and said "Why don't you look like that?"
"I'm going to kill myself" Not, but it would have been music to my ears. Actually it was after a bitter divorce and a year floating in the bottom of a glass I took up running.
I was off to yet another local race and on the way out the door my wife said "When you get home from pretending you're still young you can help your daughter with her math." Ouch.
A long time ago I convinced my wife to run a 10K with me. She had never run more than about 3-4 miles, but she decided to give it a go. After I finished I ran back and found her at about the 4 mile point. I offered some words of encouragement, to which she snapped back something about how much pain she was in and it was all my fault. I steadily moved away from her and as I did a guy running nearby who heard the whole thing said "congratulations buddy, you just graduated from La Maz(?) class."
These two examples make my wife sound like a complete bitch, but she's nothing but a wonderful, lovely lady with a great sense of humor!
All of you're wives and girlfriends sound completely awful. I feel sorry for you. I would be pissed beyond belief, and would let her know it, if my wife said anything approaching any of that.
LOCKNLOAD, YOURE SUCH A LOSER. OF COURSE ANY WOMAN WOULD DIVORCE YOU. HAHAHHAHA.
and you had an alcohol problem too? thats great. you are a figure to be respected. oh man. i love drinking and getting smashed, but youre weak if you develop a problem.
the good old republican party is happy to welcome you aboard. you and limbaugh make quite the hypocritical tag team.
After finishing a marathon in 3:01 her first words were, "oh so close - are you disappoined?" Wives, don't suggest that your husbands be disappointed, I can do that all by myself.
