Is it okay...

[AllieG]

....when you are half way through your weekly long run, to use your top to blow your nose on, because you've just realised your not wearing your wrist-band?

***No snot, no glory***

I have never managed to be that brave ! Monday's run saw me tearing big leaves off beech trees as I passed and using those....

[Dunder2004 Graduate]

I am, thankfully, not a snotty runner but "any port in a storm", I say.

[useitorloseit Graduate]

I always said I wouldn't. ... but ... I wait till no-one's looking and then do fabulous snots into the hedge. I'm such a classy bird.

I never leave the house without several tissues. Moment of panic the other day when i realised i had lost the spares when pulling a tissue out of the pocket and the one i had left was already rather worn out. ....just about made it home before having to resort to desperate measures.

Press one side of nose, blow hard and make sure any expulsed matter doesn't end up on yourself. The joy of running where there are very few people around

[millwalki8 Graduate]

I say "Private" Snot bomb into a bush

[Angel-Cake Graduate]

Ohhhh gawd yes!!! This is me all the time!! Bummer forgetting that sweat band isn't it!! 😁😁

[50NotOut Graduate]

Yes! I channel my inner football player and hope nobody I know sees me.

[Rignold]

yes, with Tomas here. Snot Rocket all the way.

[Pigivi]

In true lady style I am with Tomas and Rig on this one...

but I did find a way to minimize it... I use neti pot before going out, works well!

[AllieG Graduate]

Ha ha haaa! I tried the Snot-rocket thing, looked behind me to make sure no-one was down wind but managed to shoot myself in the shoulder. After that I didn't really care. Obvs need more practice!

[misswobble Graduate]

I have a longer length tee which is handy for that job. Only when i have no hanky or wristband though 😯

None of those snot rockets for me. Shudder

[Northernspirit Graduate]

Haven't run that far to need to do this but I say 'needs must' and do whatever works. Note to self never run with other people

[Irishprincess Graduate]

Ha ha. I went out today and forget to take a tissue but just used my hand to keep the yuck at bay.

[Hidden]

I have been thinking about what to do when I've been running recently, I always have a tissue in my hand though, my nose often runs when I'm out running. I'll have to give snot bombing a try

[Curlygurly2 Graduate]

The other day I had several tissues stuffed up my sleeve as usual, but they must have dropped out. I'm almost, but not quite, ashamed to admit that I blew my nose into my hand and wiped it on my leggings! Sometimes I snot rocket too... frankly it's not that disgusting, just clear liquid...

[ActonHighStreet]

People ask why I always wear gloves when I run, even on a warm day...
