Cleaning a mat

[muck_a_luck]

My mat has never been cleaned. Ever. It is starting to smell a little bit like feet. I guess that's what comes of six or so years of sweating.

Thoughts about how best to clean it? Do I need a special mat cleaner soap - to preserve stickiness or whatnot? Or do I just want one, because they smell better?

I have a cheap purple sticky-mat mat from Walmart.

Toss it in the washing machine with some detergent and hang it out in the sun to dry. Seriously. It's that simple.

If that scares you, and I know it may, toss it in your bathtub with some dish detergent and swish. Hang it out in the sun to dry.

Sun is optional in both scenarios but if you have it, use it.
