do you enjoy walking in hot weather?

Well, it's so chilly in my office that it always feels good when I get
outdoors. And I like the feel of the sun on my body. But when the
humidity and temperature are both in the 90s, like they were
yesterday, it gets to be a bit much after a while. Ted, my walking
companion, is heavier and it's a bit harder on him, so we tend to take
a shorter route when it's very hot. (I change into shorts, sports
bra, and tank top before we walk. It would be too hot to walk in my
work clothes and I would be too sweaty afterward. Also, some of my
clothes aren't suitable for it even when it's not hot -- like straight
skirts that limit my stride or pants that touch the ground when I put
on my walking shoes instead of wearing heels. )

Today was very cool, though rather rainy right at lunchtime, but I had
a lunch date with a friend and meetings either side of lunch so we
couldn't get away for a walk today. Too bad; it would have been a
nice change. We actually like walking in a light rain.

and was curious about you. Sweating makes me feel better physically.

I go in the sauna and/or steam room at the gym every day or two --
enjoy these very much.

I wish I had the opportunity...

Yeah, I love it. Some days when I'm not working out I go in just to
do that stuff. Sometimes I go in the hot tub, then the sauna, then
the steam room, with cold showers in between :-).

Do you think one sweats more in a sauna or a steam room? Ahmed says
the sauna, but I can't tell, since it's so wet in the steam room.

The only thing I miss about NJ is my hot tub. It was in the back yard
and I used it every night after I got home from working 2nd shift. I got
to watch an eclipse of the moon once. The soak always made me sleep like
a baby.
(and yet, I *never* take baths)

I normally use the shower but if I've been working in the yard or just
coming home from a long bike ride I love to soak in the tub. I throw in
loads of bath oil and soak until I look like a pruneg
