[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think that it doesn't matter who is right, but that you need to find an alternative that works for both of you.  You say you want to go on a trip.  He says fine, great, go.  You say here are my flights.  He says, well I can cancel my Sunday workout, but could you leave later so that I can run on Saturday.  You say no.  Just no.  Why don't you say, instead, how about if I keep my flight but find you a sitter for either Saturday or Sunday morning so you can get a run in while I'm gone?  Honestly, this doesn't sound like such a huge issue that can't be resolved if you look for solutions.  [/quote]

OP here - to answer pp's question they're too young to be left alone (preschooler and toddler).

The sitter idea works, but I think he'd have to compromise the time.  He usually leaves to run between 5-6am.  I guess I could try to get a sitter one morning to come at 7 and have him leave then - I'm going to propose that.[/quote]

OP, I think that sounds great.  I think some of the responders to this thread are forgetting that your husband already did give up one run or day of exercise, so he's not thoughtless - or at least not totally thoughtless.  Now, if he won't agree to moving the time of his run, my opinion may be different.  Also, I haven't had trouble finding early babysitters, FWIW.[/quote]
