how do you cool down
After your run or workout how do you cool down? I mean after the cool down portion of the workout? How do you get all the sweat off you? Do you jump in the shower right away? I need to towel off for a good 20mins before i stop sweating, if i jump in the shower right away i'll get out and still be sweating.
