I also do a lot of athletics in the sun--cycling, but also climbing and ski touring--where sweat wicking fabric and breathable clothing is crucial. Over the years I've acquired several sun protective hooded long sleeve shirts which don't cause me to overheat. I've got a helmet, sunglasses, and short or pants on, as well, so I end up putting sunscreen on the few parts of my body which are exposed. Bottom half of my face, back of my neck, and bottom half of my legs.

+1 on the sun hoodies. Those are amazing and make being in bright sun much less stressful. Patagonia had great ones, but pulled them for not meeting 50 SPF spec, but the replacements are still somewhere in the mid 30s I believe.
yeah i have 4 of them that i got at a steep post-recall discount :)
