Yeah, four pounds, give or take. This is the average weight that I've lost while running 4-6 miles at lunch daily over the past week or so. So that is roughly 1.8 L of water that I sweating out in under an hour. This isn't taking into account the amount of sweat on my clothes when I return from my runs.
It is a shame Stuart is gone or I'd get him to calculate the flow rate of sweat from my body depending on a given surface area.
Using the Mosteller formula for body surface area I would have 2.06 square meters of skin. Holy crap that seems like a lot.
Stuart, I know you probably are surfing the interweb right now.. so I anticipate the answer sooner rather than later. Get on it!
Later

I miss Stuart and his never-ceasing investigations of the world (and horse sleeping patterns).
