Oh no😱. I’ve been watching your posts and wanted to hear how you got on. That said you have made me 😂 as a fellow zipped bra wearer. I’ve been resting since damaging my ankle a week ago so a bit of 😂🤣 needed as I fester on the sofa no longer feeling quite so sorry for myself. I also have a bra which you put in over your head. Another way to raise a laugh when you get stuck halfway 😂😂. Try again next week👍

You’ll be more determined next time. Make sure to post as reckon I’m at least 6 weeks off having the courage to go along.

Don't look at it as a fail, but an amusing story to be told over a glass of wine later.

Good luck next time.

Ahh, Shelley that can't be helped.

So....now you get to still look forward to your first park run ( this was a mere practice)

Also you absolutely have to go shopping!👍😊

I'm sure the next one will be great 🤩🤩

Oh no! Bra disaster! I wear a zippy one but it’s never come undone, or even moved a bit. I wear a sports crop top over too as I need the anchorage, maybe that helps. What bad luck: hope you give it another go soon 👍

Mines never come undone before, I love this one. I’m wondering if I didn’t clip the it down properly (if you understand what I mean)!! I think I’ll get a crop top over in future!

You’ve certainly made me think about my bra choice!

Wonder what the male equivelent to this problem would be - thong string broken? - next time wear two bra's just in case!!! Not really something one could anticipate ...LOL xx

This post made me laugh so thanks for that. Gutted you had to walk but you were there and I'm guessing your bra popped because of your super speedy Sprint start!

Haha, glad it gave you a laugh 😂. Of course it was the Usain Bolt start obviously 😂🏃‍♀️

Remind yourself of the First Rule of C25k. And then complain to the bra manufacturer !

Haha I should have put epic wardrobe fail!! 😂😂

That’s accurate ! Totally aggravating for you, but maybe wiser than letting it all hang out 😂

Pmsl....omg the thought of it...as I was walking I was getting those lapping me saying ‘well done, keep going’!! If only they knew

Oh bless you! I guess if it had been 5 minutes before the end you could have just grabbed your boobs and made it to the finish line, but not from 5 minutes in! I have to say, this is going to be a brilliant story to tell for years to come... you are a hero for going anyway... next time, Shelley! 🤗

I did try when I was on my own in that secluded spot where you go round and come back on yourself to try and put myself back in...but no it wasn’t happening 😂😂😂

I know exactly where you mean. Oh bless you Shelley. You were at the furthest point from the cars, too!

Shelley2310 profile image
Shelley2310Graduate in reply to ktsok

Yep, I had to walk....slowly I might add round to where the toilets are sneak off and go home!

I’m sure you aren’t the first, or the last, to have an exuberant bosom and a clothing malfunction. I hope you can take that bra back to the shop?!

Oh no! Tbh I don’t think anyone would feel like carrying on if that happened, I know I wouldn’t! You’ll do great next time and you’ll be one step ahead of the bra malfunction 👍🏻

Oh dear! Wardrobe malfunction is always hideous but thank you for sharing! Not sure what I would do in that situation- Run with arms folded ‘in support position’ perhaps?!

Oh god !!!!!! I can just imagine how that would have been. Blinking heck. Poor you but thankfully you were wise and didn’t try and run. Not quite sure how that would have worked. I will be double checking from now on. Had no idea they could just unzip so easy😀. Fingers crossed next week no Bra Fails for you.

I don’t think I clipped the bit down (if you get what I’m talking about). Either that or it was my Usain Bolt sprint start!!! 😂😂😂
