    Whatever happened to the good old days of horses sweat, men perspire, and women glow?


    I never did understand that glow thing.
    Each day is a gift, that's why it is called the present.

    I was really glad to read this as I had noticed that when I run on the treadmill and see other women on treadmills around me, I sweat WAY more than they do. I drip, my hair gets soaked in back. Same when I do my weekly MTB ride with a work friend. She glows, I SWEAT.

    Now I know it's just because I'm fit.
