The mysteries of running!!

[Bazza1234]

I did a 30 minute easy run on the treadmill today and for the first time in 4 years of running, I got chaffed inner thighs!! The shorts I wore were the same ones that I wore yesterday for an identical run. It was very humid today even in the airconditioned gym - but so it was yesterday. The only other time I have been consistently been chaffed has been "nipple chaffe" during runs of over an hour in summer (caused by sweat soaked shirts) - bandaids have always solved that problem

It is weird. I suffered that a few months ago on a really short 5k run but never since. Must be a combination of factors but I've no idea what.

I think it is the Gremlins!!!

Oh no! They've escaped the mental realms into the physical!!

Weird! Is it a shorts thing?

I always wear running tights or capris so it has never happened to me, but I guess with the warmer weather on its way I have to face the inevitable trauma of shorts-wearing, so I will be watching with interest...
