I sweat like a pig. After a long run, I am literally drenched from head to foot. This doesn't bother me too much when I exercise as the whole point of exercise is to work up a sweat. But the problem is that if I'm wearing glasses or sunglasses during a run, I have issues seeing properly. My glassess get all speckled and unlike rain water, it doesn't just roll off the glass; because of the salt in sweat, and the heat generated between the glasses and my eyeballs, it gets baked onto the glass. So to help with this issue, this year I purchased a headband; nothing fancy, just one of those elastic terrycloth things that you wear to stop the sweat running in your eyes.
At this point in time, my hair has become fairly long for me; long and bushy. I generally like to have it very-very short as it is quite course and wavy. So now, when wearing the headband, I look very much like John McEnrow circa 1970s. The fun part about it is that I can yell at the line judges with impunity.
Today's run was only a 5 KM, and back to our neighbourhood hills. I got to wear my new shoes for their first break-in run. They felt a bit stiff at the beginning, but by the end, they felt really good.
