I think it's because my sweat cools me down really fast after I stop. I try to get in a hot shower right away so it doesn't happen, but I'm not always quick enough. I always wonder if there's something we can do to improve our circulation.Angelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14161908358454389179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2189875022254484779.post-1262548752156408022017-01-16T12:07:31.444-05:002017-01-16T12:07:31.444-05:00This is crazy!

I've developed a very similar temperature chart as yours for my hands. The convertible mittens are nice ( I have a pair by Craft which are marvelous) ...then full blown snowboarding mittens when it gets below 30. Using regular gloves inside the mittens. Then, yes, the hand warmers are life savers. I went through two sets of hand warmers in the HUFF 50K I ran 4 weeks ago. <br /><br />Nice resource here, thanks!!Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09405132833234395104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2189875022254484779.post-46921246855949190192017-01-14T15:04:27.586-05:002017-01-14T15:04:27.586-05:00Wow!

Moved to Hawaii a year ago and well, it hasn't been a problem (don't hate me, : ) ) . Do you have altitude sensitivity too? I've noticed some edema on high elevation hikes and some discomfort during long flights - I move around a lot to alleviate pain. Take care.Kaihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05953871036029072589noreply@blogger.com
