Triathlete Couple Finds Neutral Ground

What happens when two pro triathletes tie the knot (in the off-season, of course)? This New York Times article (registration req'd.) describes the relationship between Amanda Gillam and Michael Lovato, who train in Boulder, Colorado, under Dave Scott.

Athletes' focus on training and racing can seem selfish to spouses in relationships in which only one is competing for a living. "It is a little overwhelming for someone who isn't as athletic," Ms. Gillam said. "They just don't seem to understand it as much. It really is a full-time job."
