So, currently we have the Open Letter to unsupportive spouses with a lot of response.
I was most curious when I read AndyPants's response and basically that ironman changed her. She became more aware of what she wanted and needed and decided her relationship was not going to cut it anymore.
So, I then wondered... Is this the common scenerio? I always thought it was the unsupportive spouse that couldn't put up the the racrs training and lack of time at home. I never thought it was the racer who found they grew apart from their spouse.
So, give me the 411. I was told ironman had a 50% divorce rate, on top of marriage already having only 50% success rate. Let's inspect a little into this matter.
