how did you meet your partner? i'll go first! 10 years ago when we were both 16, kevin and i both won the english schools championships in triple jump i sent him a well done tweet and he sent me a dm asking how i'm getting to the next competition the following week we took a 4 hour train journey and chatted the WHOLE way everyone said we should get together and we were like "NOooo WeRe JusTT FriENDS!!" we both lived in manchester, but trained on opposite tracks in rival clubs it was giving athletics romeo and juliet but we stayed great friends, and spoke every day 5 years into our friendship he told me he liked me and we got married 3 years ago :) he runs the 400m and is a music producer ( a song he produced was just in day of the jackal which was cool !! ) we usually train together and while i'm casting he's making music you can check it out here https://www.youtube.com/@metzmusic1657

What a lovely story! It's amazing how a simple tweet turned into such a beautiful relationship. I love the "athletics Romeo and Juliet" vibe! It sounds like you both have such a supportive and encouraging partnership, especially with your training and creative pursuits. As for me, I met my partner at a mutual friend's party a few years ago. We ended up having a long conversation about our favorite books and just clicked from there. Our shared interests really brought us together, and now it feels like we’ve been on this journey together forever! Congratulations on your marriage and best wishes for both your athletics and Kevin’s music career! I’ll definitely check out the channel!
