Reply:Sweating is the body's way of regulating it's internal temperature. Blood rises to the skin so that it can be cooled and circulated back through the body. Perspiration brings fluids to the surface which are cooled by the outside environment. This is assisted when there is wind or when someone is running.
Reply:sweating helps cool the body. but it is not always a good thing. sometimes sweating too much can lead to dehydration. as the body teperature starts to heat up and your pores start releasing sweat, the body is attempting to cool itself. sweat is partially water as well as salt. salt in the body helps retain more water and helps give a less chance of dehydration
Reply:Yes, sweating helps runners by cooling down their body. Heat from their body is asorbed by the water which then evaporates. Water has a very high specific heat. This means that it takes a large amount of energy, in this case heat from the body, to vaporize the water. This is great beacuase a large amount of heat will be lost from the body, thus cooling it down.
Reply:It is the body's way of getting rid of excess water weight so the runner can go faster. In addition the moisture provides a slick surface cutting down on wind resistance.





Hey, don't take this seriously. I'm just having fun.
Reply:The human body has little holes called pores wherein the body can vent extra heat buildup. They will keep the body from overheating and help the body's largest organ (the skin) alive.

Otherwise, he will overheat.


That's why you sweat when you get hot even if you are not running.
