Another running first ๐Ÿฅ‡

Quite pleased with this morningโ€™s slower, muddy, hilly cross country long run.

Wife seemed more alarmed than usual by my appearance when I got back home. There seems to be a chafing issue going on under the vest. Quite alarming to look at, but I didnโ€™t feel anything.

Note to self - a couple of dabs of Vaseline or similar before I put on a white vest again ๐Ÿค” ๐Ÿคญ

Well done Dave. A couple of Band-aids could help with that issue next time :)

Ouchy! My OH suffered with this, in particular on long runs and if it was likely to be wet/rainy - e.g rain + sweat + chaffing of top against skin..๐Ÿ˜ฑ.........he tried various things, plasters - (fall off) Vaseline (stains clothes, doesnโ€™t stay put) , โ€˜specialโ€™ plasters - marketed purely for this, (fall off) the best thing so far - Bodyglide, available at all good sports retailers and the magic internet market place......

Wow - bodyglide - looks fantastic! The thing I love about these running forums is the whole alternative universe of stuff that opens up once you take a step inside๐Ÿ™‚

Ouch indeed! I suddenly feel a lot less resentful of struggling into my sports bra, it might turn me into a contortionist but at least it prevents nipple bleed!
