M decided a few weeks ago to take up running. She started with a 14 minute mile run around the block. She had read a book describing the running progress of a teenager and so she had some ideas like rest days, and pacing. She's worked her way down to a faster mile time and then she did 2 miles.
M is 13 this year and so she gets to ride to Gtowne with P. They've started training rides and today they got to do a 10 mile ride. M hasn't died yet. She's never had to use the gears so much and hasn't learned to just use them to keep her pedaling the same speed. But she's learning and building strength.
