The Mister and I both ran the Pier House 5K in Long Branch this past Monday (Labor Day). He is as fast as I am slow...his time was under 22 minutes (!!) while mine was more than 30. I look absolutely pained in the photo. A natural athlete I'm not! We high-fived after he hit the turnaround and started back on the course while I was still slogging toward the 1/2 way mark. Then, after he crossed the finish, he circled back to keep me company till I made it to the end. It's a great allegory for marriage/partnership in general...make the effort to circle back and show your commitment to your "team". Thank you, Mister, for circling back. During the race and life in general. xoxo
