I’ve started running outside every morning, but I’ve noticed that my skin feels irritated and warm by the afternoon, especially on my face and forearms. I thought I was avoiding the worst hours of sunlight, but it seems like I’m still getting damage. Is there any guide that breaks down how to safely exercise outdoors without ending up burned?

There’s a very informative article that focuses on staying safe while active in the sun. It’s available here: https://gentaur.co.uk/learning…..n-the-sun/ . It explains how sweat reduces sunscreen effectiveness, how to choose breathable yet protective clothing, and even which types of sunscreen are better for high-movement activities. It also includes advice on post-exercise skin care if you’ve been in the sun for a long time.

I used to think running early was enough, but this article taught me to reapply sunscreen halfway through my session and to wear UV-blocking sleeves. I also started wearing a neck gaiter on longer runs. It’s really made a difference—no more red, itchy skin, and I feel safer knowing I’m reducing long-term damage.
