Divorce, training and triathlon is such a repetitive theme in thread comments.
1) I don't think we have any data that says that triathletes are more likely to get divorced than the general population.
2) And if a triathlete gets divorced it could be about the other person, not the triathlete.
For many men, a divorce is about the money. Have you heard of the prodigal father/husband who didn't die fast enough for them to get the money? In most cases in the USA, women file for divorce, get the kids and have the men over the barrel (which is why we are scared to f*ck about divorce).
Being a triathlete is in there with any number of things that a spouse could throw down as they list the multiple reasons to divorce you. If you are living life in fear that your spouse might divorce you and where they influence you but you don't influence them, then that might put you on course for a divorce while making your married life miserable too.
