Red face!!

[LUHAN]

Does anybody elses face look like a cherry tomato once they have been for a jog? Mine looks red for ages afterwards too!

[arbitrarygenius Graduate]

I get like that if I over-exert myself in ANY exercise. Work used to laugh when I cycled in and came in like a tomato. I've been doing the jogging here MUCH slower, so only got to deep pink

[RunningStN Graduate]

Yes 😂 I have naturally red cheeks anyway and I look like a tomato afterwards! It gives my neighbour a good laugh when I’m on my way back

Me too! I was only going for two minutes the other day and someone said 'keep going love you look like you've worked hard!'

[Benttoe Graduate]

YES! And as a bonus I smell like wet nappies even when I make a huge effort to have plenty of carbs before I exercise. I’ve tried having a couple of glucose tablets as I start off which makes it slightly less. So don’t worry. you could be like me!!!!!

[LUHAN Graduate in reply to Benttoe]

Bless you....that's a new one...I have really stinky feet!!! ( tmi !)

[Benttoe Graduate in reply to LUHAN]

Haha! my feet are like roses! We all have something to be embarrassed about don’t we?

[Tonj]

Yep. I always look like a beetroot compared to everyone else and wonder if people think “poor woman must be over exhorting herself”

[LUHAN Graduate in reply to Tonj]

Me too! X

[Fatgirlslim19 Graduate]

Oooh yes. In fact I'm pretty sure it keeps getting redder once I stop too! I guess we just run hot and our bodies are doing a good job of cooling us down. I have a friend who grew up in the middle East, she basically never sweats or gets red... I don't hang around with her after a run. 😂

[LUHAN Graduate in reply to Fatgirlslim19]

My 2 year old asked if I had hurt myself today when I got in. She told me to lie down and she would be the doctor😂

[Fatgirlslim19 Graduate in reply to LUHAN]

😂 bless her! Make the most of that!

[Pinkpig20 Graduate]

I look very pink in the face too. I’m naturally fair too so looks more obvious!!

[LUHAN Graduate in reply to Pinkpig20]

Me too ..I normally have the complexion of a milk bottle so any excercise makes me beetroot.

On warmer days (not even hot) I would discribe my colour as maroon! I was told by an aerobics instructor years ago that some people naturally lose heat through their faces and there is nothing you can do about it. I'm glad to see from other replies that I am not a lone beacon even though I dont see any others near me. Happy glowing!

[LUHAN Graduate in reply to Justkeepbrrathing]

Me too! Everyone else I see jogging (running faster than me...) seems to be looking a lot cooler than me!
