No clue who you are and why you'd post the biggest moment of your life on this site, nor do I know who Nikeman is (should I?), but good luck with the wedding:)

Newbie or millenial here.

I hope that you invited jamin and that he catches the bouquet. Please G-d. For all of us. Let him catch the bouquet.

Congratulations!

I'm not above anyone, but we do have a community of actual people amid the trolls here. I've been one of the few registered posters to admit I'm a woman and not run away screaming (only on the inside).

Some great advice that is too late.

Be incredibly forgiving for the weird behavior that's going to start coming out. You will be very unhappy in lots of ways. Your partner will fail to understand you.

If you're understood in maybe, I don't know, 60% of your soul by your partner, that's fantastic. Don't expect that it's going to be 100%. Of course you will be lonely.

You will often be in despair. You will sometimes think it's the worst decision in your life. That's fine. That's not a sign your marriage has gone wrong.

It's a sign that it's normal, it's on track. And many of the hopes that took you into the marriage will have to die in order for the marriage to continue. That some of the headiness and expectations will have to die.

They purposely put it on a Monday so that all of their friends at the Trials could come. So it's the perfect day to have a wedding. How can you top the Trials? By having a wedding.

Don't think of it as a Monday. Think of it as the "day after the Trials wedding."

Instead, why not think of it as the last day of the trials?

It's the beginning of the trials.

txRUNNERgirl what will you do when nikeman dies before you since he's 20 years older?

Make sure to pack some snacks for wherever you end up. Nothings worse than being hungry at the end of the day. and pack a little booze too bc maybe you might get lucky

Wishing Nothing But The Best for you two.

I am sorry I won't be able to attend your nuptials with Nikeman! So happy that you found each other through your shared love of our sport, and that I met you both when we all were reporting on the 2012 Olympic marathon trials in Houston!

Nikeman was working as a spotter for the Olympic Track Trials broadcaster all ten days. Scheduling their wedding for the day after is perfect timing :)

Son (Moe), sometimes you learn one of the secrets of life and sometimes you don't. You obviously didn't. No one is above anyone else. I don't care if they are well known here or not, but obviously that's what you base your life on, not me. Stupid? Look in the mirror fat man.

You have stirred the anger of a group of letsrun has-beens. Unfortunately they didn't go away years ago but still pester the board with their talk of the "good old days" (believe me, they weren't very good). These people have stopped contributing anything interesting and they're mostly here to whine about new posters. It's like going to your local pld folk's home.

As a new and fresh poster you're worth a thousand times more than these old gray-heads.

Welcome!
