As if puffing and panting through pads isn't enough!! As if wearing a big baggy t-shirt in the heat because I'm too ashamed to wear a vest top isn't enough!! My face is SCARLET after about 2 rounds on the pads. Sometimes I forget about it too until I go to the changing room and see my face. I throw water over it franticly and pat it with a wet towel and it cools a little but it's still glowing. It stays that way too for about an hour or two.
But I'm not entirely a freak. Fun Fact -when you exercise your blood vessels dilate and carry more blood to the skin's surface which causes you to sweat and cool off. This can lead to a flushed face which is more noticeable in fair skinned people like myself. (Of course it can also be a sign of an extremely unfit person).
So although I may look like I'm about to have a heart attack I'm actually not. Unfortunately it's one of those embarrassing things that I have to deal with. It's only reeeeeally bad if somebody points it out- so take note DON'T TELL ME I ALREADY KNOW!!!!
