The Time I Almost Froze Myself

I worked out Saturday night - toning DVD and C25K program - and was pretty much wet with sweat (charming I know). S was watching SVU, so I sat down (on a towel) to watch with him in my gym clothes. The AC was on pretty high I guess because I started to feel a little cold. I was also rehydrating and drank 48oz of ice water while watching the show.

Just before the show ended, S looked at me and said "Are you alright? Your lips look blue!" I said I was fine and kinda brushed it off.

When the show was over I got up to go shower and looked in the mirror. My lips were pretty much blue. I looked pretty scary, kinda like the corpse in the show =/

I'm guessing the combination of wet clothes, AC and cold water dropped my body temp a significant amount. It was pretty freaky and I'll be sure not to do that again!

  1. Too funny! I ran a half-marathon once on a very windy day. When I crossed the finish line, I noticed that my face was covered in white dust. Apparently the wind made the water from my sweat evaporate so all that was left was the salt! So bizarre but it's true!

    aaaaaaand, now we're officially friends because we've shared stories about our sweat. Haha!!
