Does exercise make you feel colder?

If I commute in, especially but not exclusively on a cold day, I can be warm and toasty when riding, but when I stop, the furnace shuts down and I'll feel chilly.

My new office in thecollege is one of htose "always warmer than the rest of the building" places, which makes me very happy.

Maybe it's the swimming before work. We have to do a short walk outside (in a bathing suit) to get to the pool and then back to the locker room. Plus inevitably you're a little wet when you leave the gym.

I had bloodwork in June, and all normal and I take a multivitamin. I guess I just don't like the cold.

When I was training in earnest in late August and September, I found that after a long run or brick I would feel chilly for a while - even though it was often in the 70s or 80s outside. If I sat down to stretch indoors afterward I would have goosebumps, and after my shower I would have to put on warm sweats for a little while. Although the AC was probably on sometimes, my apartment is definitely not kept cold.

I have no idea what caused it - I just felt like perhaps my body was depleted somehow. So I can't really offer an explanation - all I can say is, it happened to me, too!
