Wow man, you guys never cease to amaze me with your solutions to these
seemingly unsurmountable problems, like cold tummys, and sweating. True genius

tummys because he took off his coat, or sweat running into your eyes. Man has
sought answers to these BAFFLING puzzles for millions of years, but here on the
internet we solve them in moments!

Needs work.

'man' is redundant.

'these' is unnecessary
Should have used insurmountable.
Misspelled tummies.
No comma after tummies.

> True genius at work.

Should be 'geniuses' as you're addressing RR in general.

Misspelled dilemmas
Dangling Modifier: "like cold tummys because he took off his coat"

I carry a bandana in my pocket and use it to wipe away the sweat. On
longer runs I carry two.

Get a sweatband, costs maybe us$5 to $10 -- usually in the tennis
section of sporting goods stores. If you saturate it you just squeeze
it out and put it back on. The elastic is good for a couple years.
