I saw a tweet with a link to yogaundressed and it got me to thinking about my treadmill runs. I usually run in my stuffy dungeon and crank out miles wearing a light cotton shirt that is dripping in sweat after 20 minutes.
If I run without the shirt would evaporation make the run cooler?
It really looks a lot worse than it is I am wearing shorts, and yes it was cooler and the cool down after the run was quicker. I may have to repeat this experiment.
I got off to a slow start this morning with a long slow warm up. After a few minutes at 10 minute miles I picked up the pace and ran progressions of 5 minutes at 30 second pace differential. Then did a little cool down. The grand total was 25 minutes of running and a total distance of 2.8 miles. Not bad for an injured old man.
Plod On.
