It's worth noting what arena you are playing in too. The issue with status these days is that the internet has us all performing on a world stage. Relative to everyone in my real life community, I usually have an edge when it comes to fitness. Relative to the world? I may as well be a mouse! I am pretty quick on the bike, second fastest on strava yesterday at my local, and a pretty nifty bike! But relative to instagram? I am slow as a slug, and I may as well have found my bike in a dumpster, with these 20k rigs that get all the attention.
So I guess my approach is to try and stay on local communities, or niche online communities. Not to be the best in them, just because I am not the best and don't need to be to enjoy my life and improve, so it's more relatable than the exceptionalism on the broader net.
