Sweating and then go to a really cold theater dangerous?
I run everyday. But today I want to see Taken 2. My plan is to run to the theater, watch the movie, and then run home. But the theater is very2 cold. So my question is, is it dangerous to go watch the movie in a really cold theater while i'm still in my wet clothes?

No, actually. You have to understand that you getting sick isn't because you were cold and wet. You getting sick is because you caught a virus or were exposed to harmful bacteria. If anything, it's the other people in the theater and door handles that you need to watch out for.
So to protect yourself, don't open the door and then put your hand on your mouth, sit next to coughing or sneezing people, or anything like that.
Oh, and be sure to cool down before the movie and warm back up before you go back outside, running. You being cold and wet won't get you sick, but it could cause you cramps if you immediately go back outside running.
