(in my head)

Christopher: Drop to a lower gear. You want your cadence to be around 90rpm.

Me: I feel like my legs are going to fly off!

Christopher: You’ll thank me when you’re doing 60-mile days.

Suni (quietly to me): He knows what he’s talking about. But do what feels comfortable.

Christopher: Also drop your heels so your foot is level. Your calves will cramp like that.

Me: I can’t help it, I’m a toe pointer!

*peaceful cycling for a while*

Christopher: *eyes feet*

Me: I know, I’m trying!

Suni: You’re doing great.

Thanks for keeping me going guys!
