I'm going to go and Howdy folks, Rob Wolf here. This is another edition of the Paleosolution

podcast. It is my great honor to welcome today's guest Christopher Kelly.

Christopher is a computer scientist, a professional cyclist,

a functional diagnostic, nutritional practitioner, and just generally a super cool dude because you have an

awesome British accent how are you doing man?

I'm doing great thank you very much for having me on Rob it's a pleasure.

Great to have you I believe theatchy tracked you down because I kind of sent him out looking for folks who had interesting

stories and when he came back with your story I said that is going to be phenomenal.

Can you tell folks a little bit about your background and you know why they're

going to find you incredibly fascinating just like I will today?

Well I think you, part of my story is going to be very similar to a lot of people listening.

You know, I had really poor digestion my whole life and I've been cycling my whole life, like riding bikes. really

I just I've been cycling my whole life like riding bikes and I guess it got about 2008 and I just bumped into a friend that said hey dude you're really fast you should race your bike and I thought

mmm that sounds like fun and I did and he was right I was pretty fast so I thought wow

I wonder how much faster I could get if I go train so my idea of training was you know how fast can I ride my bike to work every day for a year.

And of course the stress of that I just, you know, completely fell apart in no time whatsoever.

And so I got myself a coach and that helped and the first thing he did was slow me down and I started

doing lots of long slow distance and you know obviously there's some people that won't like that

but you know it did reduce the stress and I felt much better but I people that

a lot of that were like that but you know it did reduce the stress and I felt much better but um just that

no big base building deal yeah just building that aerobic base but um you know by

that time my digestion was so bad it was just awful you know like horrible
