Who else’s partner is so awesome they buy you running gear as a present?

I’m currently on the subs bench with shin splints, so my fantastic wife bought me compression shorts and and socks to help with my symptoms and to help stop them happening again.

I’m a lucky guy!

Happy Valentines Day to you and your wife 'snagsboson' what a lovely present from her to you for today, just a pity that you are "on the subs bench with chin splints", hopefully very soon you will be able to run with your new compression shorts and socks and you will not get shin splints again.

Nice! Your wife either loves you, or wants you out from under her feet ..... I think she loves you! ❤

I work overseas so she gets me from under her feet pretty regular. I’m hoping for just loves. Thinking about it she could be trying to kill me off!

We’ve been married for 25 years and we’ve never done Valentine presents. It’s not in the items, it’s in the actions 😄

Because I spent so much time away I take every opportunity to make her feel special.

In your case the items are part of the actions ! It’s always hard to keep love going when your time together has to be limited. Well done to you both for your treasuring of each other x
