Everything you need to know about the fan favorite and runner-up on 'The Bachelorette'

[bachelorette peter kraus rachel Lindsay]ABC Peter Kraus established himself as a front-runner at the start of "The Bachelorette" this season, but in a dramatic finale, he ended as the runner-up. The 31-year-old scored the first one-on-one date and bonded with "Bachelorette" star Rachel Lindsay over their gap-toothed smiles. But it was their open and honest conversation about both having gone to therapists that placed Peter miles ahead as the fan favorite. So when Kraus and Lindsay ended their relationship before the final rose in one of the craziest "Bachelorette" twists, many fans were upset. Here's everything we know about the runner-up:  1. HE'S FROM MADISON, WISCONSIN, AND IS A CERTIFIED TRAINER. Instagram Embed: http://instagram.com/p/BWX3vw3A6bF/embed/ Width: 800px According to his LinkedIn, Kraus graduated in 2010 with a degree in dietetics from Madison Area Technical College, and he did clinical nutrition internships at the University of Wisconsin Hospital and Badger Prairie Hospital. He is also a certified personal trainer through the International Sports Sciences Association. His also lived in Los Angeles and Chicago, and while in the "windy city," he was voted one of the city's hottest trainers by Time Out Chicago.  He used to play baseball, soccer, basketball, and football in high school, though he considers football his favorite sport and is a huge Packers fan. He has completed multiple triathlons and three Ironmans. 2. HE HAS A BROTHER. Instagram Embed: http://instagram.com/p/BI0Ni8Rgki3/embed/ Width: 800px In his "Bachelorette" bio, Kraus calls his brother "a rock" and said he is "the very best father and husband." Very little information is known about his brother, though we are sure to learn more about him during the hometown episode.  3. ON THAT NOTE, KRAUS IS A DOTING UNCLE AND FAMILY MAN. Instagram Embed: http://instagram.com/p/BNQmUoqA-KW/embed/ Width: 800px Kraus is close to his parents and often shares photos of them together on his Instagram. Some of the cutest photos he posts are with his niece and 1-year-old nephew.   4. HE'S THE FOUNDER OF WORTH PERSONAL TRAINING. Instagram Embed: http://instagram.com/p/BLwwpaPgbAD/embed/ Width: 800px Kraus's business offers both bootcamps and individualized personal training, which can be in-home or at a chosen location. They also offer nutrition lessons. Kraus works with a registered dietitian to create personal diets and nutritional practices for his clients.  You can follow his business account on Instagram.  5. HE WAS A MODEL. Instagram Embed: http://instagram.com/p/BDVnJAPA_iF/embed/ Width: 800px Kraus pursued a modeling career before going to school, even moving to Athens in Greece to model for three months. He (mostly) stopped modeling about two and a half years ago, but developed a friendship with the people behind J.TOOR, a Chicago-based menswear line. He was involved with their 2015 campaign and a campaign in early 2017.  He was also featured in a fashion film for jewelry company Lone Ones in which he is shirtless the entire time and showing off his various tattoos.  6. HE BATTLED AN EATING DISORDER.  Instagram Embed: http://instagram.com/p/BVhcaz9gVC4/embed/ Width: 800px On his company's website, Kraus revealed that he developed an eating disorder when he was 19 and pursuing a modeling career. Both his health and fitness began to decline and he "hit rock bottom" in the winter of 2007. Kraus enrolled in the dietetics program at Madison College in the spring of 2008 and began to get healthy again.   7. HE ALWAYS HAD A GOAL TO BE ON "THE BACHELOR." Instagram Embed: http://instagram.com/p/BV-vtVCAcCL/embed/ Width: 800px In a humorous #TBT post on Instagram, Kraus shared an old yearbook photo in which his future plan read: "Go to art school, become famous in one way or another, be on 'The Bachelor,' live happily." In his caption, he added, "When I set my mind to something at 17 ... apparently I really stick to it."  8. HE ENDED AS THE RUNNER-UP. Instagram Embed: http://instagram.com/p/BWnNOnMgr_S/embed/ Width: 800px Kraus made it to the final two after their fantasy suite night in Spain, but because Kraus was wary to propose at the end of the season, the two made the decision to cut their relationship short during their final date. "I can't do anything but wish you the very best," Kraus told her. "I think we're both going to regret this decision." Lindsay and Kraus both cried during the heartbreaking good-bye. 9. AS OF THE "AFTER THE FINAL ROSE" SPECIAL, HE'S STILL SINGLE. Instagram Embed: http://instagram.com/p/BXb3OyngzzW/embed/ Width: 800px  Lindsay and Kraus reunited during the live finale special and both were visibly upset.  "I'm shaking like a leaf right now," Kraus said.  He reaffirmed that the decision was made because of their differences in how to proceed in the future. Lindsay wanted a ring at the end of the show, but Kraus wanted to take it slow. During his time on "The Bachelorette," he repeated that he only wanted to propose once in his life and needed to be sure about the choice.  Kraus also said that he still struggles with the decision and thinks about what a future with Lindsay could look like. She, on the other hand, was still happy with her final choice.  NOW WATCH: There's a place off California's coast called the 'Red Triangle' where over 1/3 of great white shark attacks happen

Deputy Foreign Minister Ioannis Amanatidis' welcome speech at the Global Scientific Symposium" "MACEDONIA THROUGH THE AGES: Historical facts and contemporary challenges"

Ladies and Gentlemen, Friends,I convey to you the greetings of Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras and best wishes for the success of the proceedings of this symposium, wich coincides with the Opening of the 12th Global Conference of Pan-Macedonian Associations and the 71st Pan-Macedonian Symposium of America.Allow me, as a Macedonian, to express my joy at being here with you today, as I am aware of your ongoing struggle and the long years of efforts you have made to promote the scientific knowledge and cultural tradition of Macedonia.Ladies and Gentlemen,In an unstable global environment, we are exercising a multidimensional proactive policy, drawing a national line, as became apparent in the negotiations in recent months on the Cyprus issue.Greece respects International Law and the decisions of international organizations such as the UN, vigorously defending our national interests within this framework.Ladies and Gentlemen,We are working to bring security and stability to our neighbourhood and to keep the channels of communication open.We want stability and continued cohesion for our northern neighbour, and we are the only country not to have interfered in its domestic affairs during the recent crisis. But FYROM must abandon the state ideology of ahistorical irredentism, on which it raised generations that now perceive Greece with a sense of fear.The resolution of the problems depends first and foremost on the creation of a mindset and culture of consensus and compromise on the part of our neighbours in FYROM. The creation of another outlook, towards which they must also be urged by European leaderships; European leaderships that must not spoil this government in the way they did the Gruevski government – treatment that merely created intransigence. This new outlook must keep the new government open – beyond just the communications level – so that it can look for ways to open a process for seeking a solution.Greece has shown in recent years, through our policy of joint confidence-building measures in sectors such as economy, border control, energy and education, that it wants regional stability and is pursuing bilateral cooperation. We want to have a stable neighbour that abandons nationalistic mindsets of the past.Ladies and Gentlemen,Pointing up objective reality through scientific research into the wealth of Macedonia is something that we, too, support, through the exercising of educational and cultural diplomacy.I wish you every success in the proceedings of your Symposium, and I hope to see all of you again next year – and in particular those of you who have come from abroad to be with us here today.Thank you.
