'This was the whole post on a private forum:
'I don't know how to say this because it's still really raw.
'I probably should be really angry but I'm just incredibly sad about the whole thing right now.
'I don't think I've ever cried so much.
'I wanted my husband to love me & keep me safe, and I would love him right back, but it just got worse and worse, until I grabbed a bag of a few thing's & I just left.
'Anyway, That's why there's been no new wkouts [workouts].
'(I would never miss a wkout [workout] - I'd do it on the pavement bare foot & naked if I had to).'
