That makes me feel SOOOO much better. You have no idea. Last week my BF and I went for a long (well, long for me) ride. After about 30 miles I was falling back pretty far. We started climbing a long hill and out of nowhere I started tearing up. He was zooming up the hill while I was crawling and I was so freaking frustrated that I actually started crying. How retarded...
After I caught up to him I told him (in a calm, non-crying fashion) to go the rest of the ride without me because 1) if I were behind him, I would feel pressured to keep up and 2) if I were in front, I would feel pressured to ride faster and 3) I was not enjoying the ride. And for me, that's the whole point. Anyway, sorry to vent but thank you again. Hopefully I will be zooming up with (or past) my BF with my new bike! 
"Butt Sports bra." That's awesome. Glad you got to run!
