Runner's Tan

This weekend Jim and I took a road trip to spend a couple of days with Jim's brother and sister-in-law.  They have a swimming pool which is very nice.  Yesterday we spent time in the pool in the afternoon.  I am always careful about sun exposure especially in the heat of the day.  I had on my long sleeve UPF50 swim top.  I had sunscreen on my face and a wide brim hat.  I figured my legs would be under water.  After swimming/treading water I got out and laid on a lounge chair.  Tammy asked if I had sunscreen on my legs.  I said no but I have a good tan base and I wasn't going to be laying out very long.  I forgot one little detail.   The little strip of skin on my upper thighs that the running shorts cover rarely sees sunshine.  Consequently my upper thighs got burned.  Ouch.  This also made me tired.  I am still recovering from my mild case of sunstroke.
