  • Hi Rue,

    Finding Outdoor Afro is such a wonder! Before being diagnosed with Systemic Lupus in 2004, I was a whale boat rower, marathoner, & power walker. Since 2010, I've become increasingly more sun sensitive. Although I dress for sun protection all the time, and I'm learning more about 100% sun protection clothing, I'd love to get back outside more. I wondered if Outdoor Afro does a.m. activities that conclude by 10:00 a.m., when the sun is at its least intense?
    Thank you! Felicia Thompson
