Day 66
Woke up to rain and decided not to exercise due to not only the weather but also the severe rash on my arms and legs. From internet research I discovered that the tanning lotion I used is infamous for giving people severe rashes and burns, and it looks like it will last a week before the burning rash subsides. Quite a blunder on my part to use tanning lotion, and the reason I did was because my skin is already afflicted with some sort of ailment which makes it severely dry and wrinkled so I guessed that the oil would not only shield the sun but also moisturize the skin. What I forgot to do was check the ingredients and if I had I may have used caution because it is a mish mash of chemicals which must surely be more dangerous than over exposure to sunlight. So for the next few days I will try to limit my time outdoors, although I still plan to run if I can get up early enough, but the rash has been waking me up at night and this makes me rise later than I want to.
