😂😂😂, sorry, l found your post amusing. Can’t think of any other forum you can talk about bodily functions😂 The podium awaits you on Monday lbot . Good luck with the bodily functions 🙃👍🏻
Pantyliners are your friend. As are Kiegel exercises (or whatever they’re called).
A male friend reduced us to tears of laughter at the weekend by admitting to squatting in the middle of a field on his 10k training run last week. I know exercising dogs helps them poop, so maybe the same applies to humans.
Noses, I carry an old fashioned hankie tucked into my bra or use a Buff.
I also get streaming eyes when it’s windy... and that can really sting.
Ha I have to carry tissues when I run! It’s a real thing! I never normally carry tissues but after the run where I had a snail trail of snot up my cheek (I’m so sexy) tissues have become as necessary as head phones. Also after every run the first thing I do is poop! Normally hits me around 15 mins in and it feels like I’m racing my digestive tract to the finish line 😂😂😂
Sometimes I wipe my nose on my sleeve rather than ferret up sleeves for tissue. It’s something I’d never ever do not running but when I get my running gear on respectable grandmother behaviour is forgotten 😉 However if I catch my grandchildren doing it then watch out 😳 Your post has made me laugh!
Can totally relate to all 3 Ibot! Katnap regularly hears me complaining about no.1. No rhyme or reason to it either. For no.2, if it doesn’t want to come before you go you can’t make it. Sods law once you leave the house 😂😂 For no.3, wear a buff/snoody thing around your neck then you don’t need to faff around for tissues. As long as your nose doesn’t run too much otherwise you’ll have a icky, soggy, cold piece of snotty fabric around your neck 🤢
Great post! My nose runs a bit if it’s cold... a few times I’ve lifted my T-shirt up without even thinking to wipe it... flashing the fluorescent sports bra for all to see 🤣🙈 ... Why have I never thought of tissues 🤷♀️
My bladder is pretty good at the moment... I have stopped wearing liners when I run for hygiene purposes...
Since starting running I’ve become more regular... if I’m a little clogged up the running definitely gets things moving 😅😅😅 damn white bread, it’s my guilty pleasure
The nose is usually okay but aaah relief when it’s a little blocked and the running clears it. I haven’t had a major running nose but I have used my sleeve
Also number four... joggers/runners nipple. I say no more
No, like the shiny graduate badge next to my name...
It does look like you have mouse in some sort of wrestling headlock... but I am sure it is in a loving way. If it was your cat however, I'd be calling the RSPCA like everyone else is right now...
Oh ok! I will admit to an occasional swipe of my nose with my sleeve, I thought that's why running tops had thumb holes in, so the sleeve was always accessible.
Hi! Well done running with your boobs, number 1 and 2 problems lol. It’s unfortunately classed as ‘normal’ for women to have these issues but there are things you can do to help. It tends to be a little issue with your pelvic floor which can be either a little lazy/ weak or for some people too hard working! Either way basic low level Pilates exercises working on using your pelvic floor, breathing and moving all at the same time (imagine rubbing your belly, patting your head and singing ymca all at the same time!). You can also focus on posture especially when it only begins to happen half way through your runs. Your pelvic floor and diaphragm work well together if one isn’t helping the other then problems can occur. If you stand relaxed tall, ribs relaxed down and pelvis in neutral they can work well together. If you let your ribs move out forwards or pelvis forward - think standing like a duck or j lo- then your pelvic floor and diaphragm are not parallel and cannot work together. Some people when they get tired running fall into this posture and then the number 1 problems start. A quick fix if this is the case is to try relax your ribs down and use your core to bring your pelvis into neutral.
All sounds very complicated but it’s an easy fix if this is the issue.
My nose is running way faster than me! The first thing I'm checking before going out are several tissues. I can run without pants or shirt, but not without tissue!
I have female nr 4 to add to your list, and it's not wee, but liners seem to save my panties
Runners don't know taboo when it comes to body fluids, body parts, injuries, and issues that are inevitably connected with this amazing body movement
My nose decided to eun even if I am sitting comfortably with company of sore throat.
But today I am going to run away from whatever bug is trying to catch me. I will do cautious 2-4x 10 min intervals taking to my knee gently and asking if it's ok to continue.
Hehe, a deranged snotty psychopath is the perfect description of my appearance when running this morning. I used to stress about it...now I have abandoned all sense of decorum and just use my sleeve...
Fortunately I don't suffer from No 1, but with you on No. 2, I have to go before I go, which helps with No 1 too. No. 3 also a shared leak, but my major issue is sweat, I only have to look at my running gear and I start, even in the colder weather.
Yep number 1 for me. Glad I’m not alone in this. Liners and a longer running top that covers my behind to hide any telltale signs of leakage. Number 2 too on occasion! Yet when I get home and go and have a sit down 🚽 nothing... materialises! How annoying is that! 😏
Omg so annoying!! Bloody bodies are made just to embarrass us when ever they can. Think back assembly and all quiet. Then a rumbling stomach 🙋🏽♀️ Yep it was me 😂😂

5k I’m so close! I’m coming for you! BOOM! Let’s get it 🎉
It's so hard!
