And it was less about the fitness of it and more about the overall experience of it. And yeah, I feel like it seemingly happened overnight that The phones would be going off the hook. I'm running late.

And a lot of times I feel like the time of day mattered more than who was teaching. Like they had to take the 830 because they needed to get to work. Then it morphed into, no, I have to be with the person who's going to heal my spirit. It was less about the fitness of it and more about the overall experience of it.

I was never, ever directed by Ruth to do anything. Like to me, she was a silent partner and co-founder and instructor. And Julie and Elizabeth did like phones, press, checking in. Customer service, back-end financial type stuff.

I think Claire was about 16 when she first started riding. And she fell in love, big time, hard, and said to Julie and Elizabeth, I need to teach. And they were like, you are a kid. No way. And she would take her little laptop and sit outside the door. and like take notes on the playlists of Ruth, Stacy, Lori.

She would just sit there and write down the songs of the playlists in the order, listen to them. And she would then, you know, come back with her mom to ride and then chat up everybody and everyone. And then Julie finally said, okay, work the desk. Like, I can't fight you forever. You're gonna be here all the time anyway. You might as well be useful.

Total, utter shock. She was burning the candle at both ends. She had this unrealistic image of perfection in her head that, you know, probably most women battle with. And she was just so fucking beautiful. I don't think maybe she was consuming enough calories for the amount of classes she was teaching. Like at the time, I think she was teaching upwards of 14 classes a week.

And even someone who's like an Olympic athlete has like doctors around them and coaches. And this is like a kid, essentially. Work hard, play hard. I don't want to insinuate that there was anything nefarious happening, but there are rumors about that.

Like, we were very close. And, you know, you spend holidays with these people. You know, you teach turkey burns on Thanksgiving Day instead of traveling home to your family. And then you eat together because you're not at home. And you do that for however many Thanksgivings and Christmases and birthdays. You're super close to these people. And, you know, when we're out...

Eating, playing, you don't think people are going to not be here anymore. It's just kind of earth shattering when they're not.
