Question Cold Bum

Why oh why oh why does my bum get so cold? The rest of me gets lovely and warm (even to the point of sweating like a pig) yet my bum is still freezing

Anyone know why this happens? Any tips on stopping it?
Cheers.

I think (though I don't know) that it's a case of the body having no real need to keep it warm... it's not like it has any real function... so the body won't tend to waste valuable energy ensuring it stays suitably warm on a run

May be complete tosh... but that's what my brain imagines the situation to be

Taurus does it bother you whilst running or is it something you notice when you get home.

My bum is always cold too but don't notice till I get home, it's not something that bothers me though.

So if it has no real function,it gets cold.

Without going into to much detail Richard, I really hope your wrong.................

Enough said dave! I think the body prioritises where the blood flows, and thus where is warm so... - Oh I don't know! i'll shut up now
