I think more excited than confused TT

Fat is an insulatory material, so if you think about it, it wouldnt be good to have lots of blood vessels in fatty tissue (you would loose heat by radiation from the skin surface - diving mammals are covered with fatty tissue to prevent heat loss when underwater), hence your bottom does not get as warm as the rest of you when you run.

In fact, the fatty areas of a body are never as warm (feel any of them on a cold day and you'll see what i mean!), but this is not ususally very noticeable, but when you are running your blood vessels are vasodilated throughout the rest of your body in order to supply muscles with o2, so the constrast between your bottom/fatty areas and the rest of your body is sharply felt.

I expect those who dont feel it so much either have less insulatory material on their bottoms or dont work up the same amount of heat when running!

Aye! So any less insulated Ladies need a warm up??

You mean more insulated ladies don't you. As the ones with less fat, will already have warm bottoms. Actually, I'd be willing to help out with some sort of comparison test so we could see who's got the coldest bottoms, those with less or more insulation.

I'm sure there are pros and cons for each. You are right though a test is the only way.

Calling all ladies of all sizes and insulation level for a test form an orderly line facing away and grab your ankles please I'm coming!

As Richard mentioned. It's one of your body's extremeties. Your body will pump blood to parts of the body which need it the most ie the working muscles. As your bum is not a major working muscle when you run, it will get cold due to the lack of blood flow to that part of the body. Hope this helps answer your question. I don't have a bum factuation, just applying some science to the subject

The gluteus maximus ("bum muscles") are the largest muscles in the body, aren't they? I would imagine them to be working quite hard during the course of a run.

GONE RUNNING

The glute muscles are used alot in running, but the buttocks do have a cushion of fat which gets cold due to a lack of blood flow to this area. Hope this helps explain it better.
