Does anybody else have to take tissues on their runs? I don’t know if it’s the exercise or the chilly weather, but my nose constantly runs….when I run!

I always have a tissue with me , I have sinus problems and sometimes when I run my nose runs faster 😂

I try and remember. I’m allergic to most of nature!

glad it’s not just me! Hubby said I was doing something wrong if I’m blowing my nose whilst running 😂

Mine does too and I've been known to forget tissue and sniff all the run
isnt that what sleeves are for? 🫢

I used to but found they didn't cope well with rain so now have a selection of little handkerchiefs which I pop in the machine with my running kit after each run. No more soggy tissues on my runs and added bonus of no more forgotten tissues in the washing machine.
I do the same: I have a couple boxes of cloth tissues from a now defunct (I think) Canadian company... They are perfect for that nose of mine that loves to run a tad with just about every movement...
EDIT: The company - Hankette - appears to still be around (or again?)... At least in Canada: ecofreako.ca/collections/ha...

I also have watery eyes, so take tissues for my nose and often wear gloves and use those to wipe my eyes. My nose and eyes water even if I am walking , a good run/walk would be a 2 tissue one, sometimes if there is lots if pollen or if it is windy it can be a 4 or even 5 tissue run!

Yes, me! I invested in hankies after running a half marathon where the heavens opened and tissues disintegrated. Then a gel exploded on my fingers, and the soggy tissues stuck to the gel. You can imagine the mess as I crossed the finish line! 🤣

Me too! I have to keep a hankie gripped in one hand all the way as my nose is always running. Not easy to blow/wipe and keep running at the same time 😂
You’re not alone so do I. I keep a hankie in my pocket or stuffed up my sleeve or in my waistband. Changed to cloth Hankins as tissues just got too soggy with the number of times I have to blow my nose.
What a skill that is to blow and run as the same time 😆

I always forget to take tissues along and I end up as a snuffling blubbering running mess😅

Yes, all the time! I’m going to use hankies now after reading these comments as my pockets are full of soggy tissues after a run 🤧. I think I’ve perfected the art blowing and running but sometimes I use it as an excuse to stop and have a little rest 🤫😂
Yes, all the time. I do have sinus problems so that doesn't help, but I generally have to carry a tissue or two every time I run otherwise I'm constantly sniffing and that makes me feel worse.

With running, with walking, with chewing even! I once read somewhere that some noses are just build that way and they love to run with movement... I have a cotton hanky with me (almost) all the time (if I don't, yea, the sleeve will do...). It's still annoying, though I am not sure there's much we can do - other than be prepared...

Yes, and my eyes, I must look a fright! I calculate one tissue per 2 kilometers...even then I sometimes run out...

my nose runs like a tap! Better out than in 🙂
I always run with two mahoosive mens hankies, plus towelling wristband for wipes between blows🤧🤧🤧🤧🤧🤧
It’s the same all year round 🙂🤷♀️
