Into the Red

Well! Today held another of those 'interesting' trainer sessions. Although the winter weather in Nova Scotia has been more like spring, being an 'older' cyclist I took my ride indoors for the colder months.
Of course, now that I've decided to race in 2012 my cycling has changed from high-level fitness to training for competition.
That's waaaaaay outside the purpose of The Remedial Cyclist, but has been a personal axe for some time!
So, Daddy is riding on the trainer and into the red zone. There's sweat, snot and tears (from watery eyes) spraying the room with each exhalation. Front 242 is pounding away for musical motivation and Daddy knows he is not, not, not supposed to be in that zone...
The little boy enters the training room, watches for a moment, then says, "Does that hurt?"
"Not really,son. It's just a little uncomfortable."

I hope everyone has a great day!
