Agree. If I've warmed up I'll go extra slow the last .5 to 1 mile to cool down. Worst though can be below freezing winter days. Same cool down for last bit applies but I'll often take my jacket and hat off outside and stand for a few seconds to a minute before going in to the much warmer and more humid indoor air.

I wonder if sodium intake has any impact on how salty our skin feels after sweating?
