OK... so... this afternoon (around 5 PM) I did about an hour and a half of Wii Fit. Then I took a shower.
About an hour ago I set off for my run. Everything went great (going tomorrow to go see what brand shoe fits my foot, and then I'll try and find it somewhere online for a cheaper price that my parents would approve of), but on my way back, my face was KILLING me. Like... sharp stinging. I thought it was just the sweat. So I got home, took another shower (which I was going to do anyways), but it still kills me... it's been around 5-10 minutes after the shower...
It wasn't cold water... it's Texas... and we have two temperatures with the water right now: warm... and hot. So I chose the warm.
The rest of me feels fine... shin splints are very minor if there at all... not at all the pain of last time... more like a slight dull soreness which is more like what I feel after any workout.
But... my face is still stinging. I looked in the mirror... it's all red.
Is this normal? Is it just the pores being open and then sweat getting in them? Or... what? Anything I can do to help soothe it?
ETA: I didn't put on anything. No makeup, no moisturizer, no sunscreen... nothing. I haven't been out in the sun all day. I just wanted to make sure I put that out there... I didn't wear anything on my face when I went exercising... well... I actually didn't put anything on at all today... and it was all off last night.
