Sorry to hear this, MC. My DH and I have had our share of problems. He points out that this is such a loner sport... we're gone for long periods of time training and racing, and sometimes the camaraderie we develop with other runners can feel exclusive to those near to us, but not part of the running. I have to agree with him, and it is difficult. I wish you all the best, friend. See you in a couple weeks.

mc, I'm very sorry to hear this. There has been a fair amount of divorce in DW's and my family, and it's never easy. Best wishes as you work through this.

 

[Pie Jones]

Been there. Nothing to say but keep putting one foot in front of the other. Best of luck.

 

[riley0003]

Been there, done that. Hope everything turns out as well as it did for me. You're dealing with it in a healthy way.<br><br>
Best wishes,<br>

Sorry to see you having to go thru this McSolar. Wish there was something tangible we could do for you and yours. Hoping for the best.

 

[Econo]

aw, mc...that's rough....

 

[Soundrunner]

Emcee. You know you have good company and if there's anything I can do, please just say so.<br><br>
I will say that the last few months I have realized what an incredibly strong person I am. It keeps coming at me, and I keep bouncing right back like one of those Weebles from our childhood. <img alt="smile.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/smile.gif"> (They wobble but don't fall down.)<br><br>
You will wobble, often, but you will get through this.<br><br>
Keep running.

Hi Mcsolar, sorry to hear that you are going thru this. Hope you the best. Sad to say, but I have been thinking about the same thing, about ready to throw in the towel. Good luck, Larry

 

[Johnny]

Best of luck to you, Matt, been thru this once. I know you already know this, but things always work out, maybe not the way we want, but they work out. Life throws enough stuff at us without this. You're in my thoughts man.<br><br>
{{{mcsolar & family}}}<br><br>
Larry, I hope all works out for you as well.<br><br>

[pegruns]

, MC, you're giving me a dejavu! I'm sorry you have to go through it. I wouldn't wish it on anyone. I have five kids that had to go through it with me. Run, run, run. It definitely helps... I'll keep you in my thoughts....

 

[Labduck]

Man mc, I'm really bummed to hear about this. I wish you the best my friend.

 

[enkephalin]

Gosh, I was really hoping this was just a bad parody thread. That really sucks any way you slice it. Glad you have some diversion with great friends coming up soon.<br><br>
