His little motivation dance is so cute!

u/Talk-O-Boy 3h ago
I assume that if you account for the dances and the bf biking to his next destination, he may be getting in more cardio than the runners themselves.
He had to train to output this level of support. He won’t stop until he’s the best cheerleader this world has ever seen. OP may be able to win the next race from the moral support alone.

That’s an electric bike - in a way more impressive as it’s 25 cents a minute and that adds up quick.

This is the secret. It’s not being an Adonis it’s being loving and supportive, it’s showing an interest in your partner and their interests. Looks will fade but someone who is respectful and loving like this will be worth staying with when things get hard.

Incredible musical score by Nicholas Britell, a follow up pairing with Barry Jenkins and Moonlight.
If you liked this song, check out "Eros" also apart of the musical score.

Great for her! You go.dude! Next time get a silly hat so she can always see you, when my gf ran a 10k I got a water buffalo hat kinda like this and showed up with a bunch of water at the halfway point and the last tenth of a mile to encourage her

This made me cry. This is like the end of, “Brittany Runs a Marathon”, when Catherine, and Seth, and Jern are there cheering her on. If you’ve run a marathon, especially the New York City marathon, you absolutely know that feeling of having even one familiar face in the crowd.

When I used to race, it was a lonely endeavor. I never had family at the finish line, although I had a lot of friends who would be there and would cheer me on during the race. This guy is fantastic and she is so lucky to have that support. Brought a tear to my eye.

Not to be a downer but haven't there been many cases of people falling off light poles and dying or being permanently injured/becoming disabled? I wouldn't want to see anyone I care about climb up something like that and endanger themselves, personally.

I’m a runner and this is my dream. It’s a lot to ask after a decade and a half of races, and my wife does cheer but this is life. What joy to see along the course and would boost you so much.

This is beautiful!
Side note: Agape by Nicholas Britel (sp) is probably one of the most emotion inducing tunes I've ever heard. It's from the soundtrack of If Beale Street Could Talk

You just know that he will be cheering her on in 2085 when she breaks the marathon record in the over 85 year old division.

u/Aggravating_Dog8043 2h ago
The smile when he found her at the end of the race says it all! As a generally supportive (but not superhuman like this guy) Marathon husband myself, I can attest that, despite my best will, I'm usually a little harried (and sometimes mildly frustrated) by the search at the end. This guy's love shines through all that!
