I am curious to how many people go through similar drama from a spouse or partner because of your training and racing schedule?
I know I have and it drove me crazy till I figured it out.
Checkout this book on how to Train without Filing for Divorce and figure out what I figured out.

Enjoy
P.S.
It helped me!
Hate to say this, but if divorce is coming on do to tri training, priorities are out of order, especially if kids are involved.
Husband & leader first, triathlete second.
Very true.
We are not pro’s getting paid. We are always parents first.
Thanks you for spamming the forum with an ad for your own book. No wonder she’s leaving you.
Care to summarize the key points or are you just hocking your book and coaching services?
Pretty sure you are supposed to pay Slowtwitch for that service 
Lol. Your wrong! Figured I can help a few people out since this is one issue that always comes up.
It’s ok though.

He’s wrong? So is that not a link to your own book which you are trying to sell?
If you are here merely trying to “help a few people out”, and not trying to make a buck, how about posting the text of the book freely downloadable…?
I don’t have a problem with it, the kindle version is ~$8 and he’s been a member for 4 years. Not that I’d buy it since I’m not married but I find it interesting. Perhaps it should be in the notices or classified forum though.

The problem is he didn’t say it was his book. If he would have been up front in his post I would agree with you.
It’s not somebody trying to make a buck, as them doing it in the wrong place (here) and then trying to pretend that they’re only trying to “help”. And then denying its an ad.
No skin off my back either, but as I understand it, the powers-that-be here do not appreciate it. Didn’t a certain crank (manufacturer, that is) get kicked off for repeatedly and pathologically doing that a couple of years ago?
Yes, you guys make some good points.
Self-pimping aside …
I know a few folks whose IronHubby or IronMissus is now an IronEx
Misunderstood. Wrong about me getting a divorce. But it is my book.
No need to get all angry guys. It is my book. I put it together with the experience of coaching athletes mainly at the 1/2 and full distance that half way through the training process did not know what to do because there was so much friction at home.
I wanted to put together a book that will help athletes out because you and I know that tri’s can become an obsession. So much that we become too focused on training and racing, not on our family and what matters.
I did not know there is a special area I can post this.
Again, I did not post this to get everyone all frazzled or to pull at someones heart strings. So time to relax SlowTwitchers. If you don’t agree move on.
you are right and if this book can save one marriage or relationship, it did it job.

I know one, but it wasn’t because of the training volume. It was because on those Thursday training rides he was riding his cute training partner instead of his Cannondale.

Hopefully she was of the “high mod” variant and worth every penny. /pink

Classifieds?

oh yes there is. You could donate 100% of your proceeds to disabled children and there would be people on here that have a problem with it.
