I know it's not about me, but this definitelt cleared up why i run from people in my free time.
They always express how they think i do things, like i'm at work or something. While i do things for joy, i take a detour home on my roadbike because the speed i can propel myself at brings me joy and a bit of a thrill too. The scenery is also very enjoyable.
But then another roadcyclist shows up and tells me how i'm doing it all wrong, how speed isn't a good measurement of performance.
Fuck yo performance brother, stop. It ruins my fun.
Sometimes i wish i had the balls to just tell them off, but that usally takes a lot of being pestered with bullshit until i snap back.
