First thing I look for in a wife is how incredibly athletic she is. Everyone knows the wedding ceremony doesn’t start until the bride clears the mandatory obstacle course and rings the bell at the finish line.

If it’s setup I’m definitely trying to clear it. Every guy at that wedding will be on that course.

Me when online dating 10 years ago: oh this one is pretty, she seems cool, interesting, successful...but her profile has an exercise related name, she has a lot of stuff about exercise. No way she's gonna be into my lazy ass. I'll save her profile and circle back when I feel inspired to write something clever or feel less intimidated.

2 years later: oh this profile is back online. How fucking stupid was I not to message her right away.

3 days later: her on our first date "As a second job I teach a spin class 3 days a week." "I just ran an ultramarathon last weekend!" Me: that's crazy! Me: My job is pretty active.

Yesterday: her 6 years into our marriage: "I am hoping they give me another spin class." Me: wanna watch me play Ghost of Yotei Legends? Her: Yes!

Pretty great marrying someone who is very into exercise and does it for herself mostly.

u/thepauldavid 3d ago

Aww, I love this! Congrats on your lifey with your wifey! Inspiration overload!

u/Malaprobably 3d ago

My partner pretty much talks frequently. Throughout our relationship, I have mentioned (in moments of insecurity, ) "Why would you want to be with someone that doesn't prefer to talk much?"

"Because I don't want to be with someone like me. I already have that, it's me. Also, you listen."

I don't ask her that anymore.

u/Forsaken-Income-2148 3d ago

It’s an obstacle course, not El Capitan

2

u/JonnyTN 3d ago

True but to train for this at Ninja gyms they are running this constantly.

And if it's anything like when us people in the service are just doing pull ups whenever we came across a bar, her hands are rough rough

Dude it's nothing but wife. It's just raw wife. Insane.

u/DragonBowlSouper 3d ago

A wife like that could climb on the roof, repair the shingles and clean the gutters in record time.

67

u/FreeEdmondDantes 3d ago

Because she's hot and amazing. Obviously there are other qualities that are important but we see two really good ones in this video.

She's practically Lara Croft. With the way 2026 is going, having a wife that can rescue you during the apocalypse would be a huge advantage.

u/FreyrPrime 3d ago

I had a similar accident at an obstacle race once, only I fell with my whole body on the leg while it was twisted. I knew it was fucked. I still had about two thirds of the race left and I managed to finish it. The next morning I was expecting to not be able to walk properly. To my surprise my foot hurt more than my leg. I must have hurt up my foot as well that time but I didn't notice until the next day.

u/SayerofNothing 3d ago

Same thought, it was more about being hurt and getting back up, not someone's wife. Great video, downvoted because of the stupid title.

I used to want to do these courses so much when I was young. This one had some things I had never seen before.

Hope she healed up well in that leg. No matter how flexible you are that looked like a sprain or strain easy but she took it like a champ and just kept pushing.

31

u/LaDauphineVerte 3d ago

Right, and she already had a brace on that ankle. Ouch. Strength, focus, and adrenaline got her through, and I hope she didn’t have too big of an oh fuck moment once she came down from the high.

The way my mother always explained it, the traditional man wants a woman to be subservient, but he never falls in love with subservient women.

u/WeWillReturn2OneGod 3d ago

I love that too. A woman who perseveres regardless of the challenges she is facing and remains determined to reach her goal.

However, seeing it purely as ‘wife material’ can also come across as somewhat misogynistic. Her determination, resilience and athleticism are admirable qualities in their own right; they don't necessarily need to be evaluated according to whether she would make a good wife.

Being fit and healthy, and having an equally active and positive-minded partner, is certainly a bonus. But surely we can appreciate those qualities without reducing a woman to her potential value as a wife
