The pain bank

A friend of mine came up with this phrasing during a hard workout (or was it a race?). Good thing I didn't say a good friend, haha. When you are suffering during a workout you are depositing into the pain bank. Your account grows with strength (I assume the interest is compounded daily, if not hourly) and you are supposed to withdraw it all on race day.

I made a hell of a deposit today: 12km on an indoor track that has an incline, running without music while pushing a stroller.

Still not whining.
