Dear Hubbie,

Today I ran my first half marathon (and I'll probably still be so proud of myself by the time I marry you I won't let you forget it). Anyways, all that running today reminded me a little bit about relationships. In order to run a long distance, you need commitment, dedication, support, and some flexibility... All elements that also make a good relationship work.

So thanks for putting forth all that effort to make our relationship successful; I promise I'll do the same for you. Just like running a long distance, I know there will be ups and downs in our marriage, and that's understandable. That being said, I also know what an amazing feeling you get for hanging in there and running a good race. Can't wait to continue on our journey together, because in the end I know there is no better feeling in the world than when I'm with you.

Love, Me
