As soon as I saw the thumbnail, my immediate thought was, "Oh *_NO!_* Sunburn!" My husband is a Celt, and he burns _really easily._ Hence why my first thought was sunburn. But, it just occurred to me - you probably shellac yourself with SPF-9000 any time you're exercising outdoors, don't you? 😉 I, however, am Italian-American; I don't tan, I brown. Back in grad-school, I used to wear Tevas [shoe-grade sandals], and when I was visiting my now-husband [we did the long distance thing for 5 years], he noticed that I still had tan-lines from them … _in _*_February._* 😆 Also back in grad-school [which was in Boulder, CO], during first year, I went cycling with my office-mate. I had overheated [I generate a lot of heat], and had taken off my shirt about halfway through the ride [which was up into the mountains]. The next day, I got a panicked phone-call from my office-mate and his wife, "John, are you okay?!?!" "Yeah, I tend to recover pretty quickly from overheating." "No, not that, the sunburn." "Huh? Oh, I have a little on my shoulder, I guess." "How?!?! How did you not burn?!?!" 😆 He was beet-red. And remember, he'd done this ride before, so he was prepared for the Sun. I rode shirtless. When we were both back on campus that Monday, and we saw the evidence, I was like, "Damn! No wonder you were worried," and he was like, "How is this even possible???" Thank you, Mediterranean ancestors! 😉
That good keep running.
