Excellent! Do you mean a hydration vest? I had one that chafed my arms horribly - only use that one on my bike now! Bodyglide did help a lot, but in the end I bought a different vest and that one gives me no issues (it's just a cheap Aonijie one from Amazon too).

I’ve got the inexpensive Aonijii vest and I’ve worn it on long runs recently in really hot weather. luckily it’s not chafed at all

Vaseline is a runner’s friend 👍.

The vest might not run with a different vest or tee underneath worth a try 🙂

I just can't wear vests, they feel so strange. I was going to wear one for my 3/4 marathon last weekend but it didn't work whenI put hydration bag on as I felt that there would be serious problems with chaffing. Good luck with rest of training plan.

I don’t like the bag in there either I ditched the bag and settled for soft flasks in the front pockets
