I didn’t really consider all the benefits of cycling and spinning until this year. That’s because up until quite recently, I was a total running snob. At my peak in 2013, I was running over 40 km a week. I remember one warm May day that year, I ran a half-marathon in the morning and then spent all afternoon gardening. I wasn’t even sore the next day. But those glorious days are long gone. A couple months later, a nagging pain in my hip cropped up that wouldn’t quit with stretching or rest. It’s a chronic issue I’m still dealing with today and has limited how much high impact exercise…
