Just try not to wince.

One reason why I have no desire to run a half marathon: nipple chafing.



My companions and I made simultaneous wincing noises as this poor guy jogged by. I felt so bad for the fella. Not bad enough to keep my camera's lens cap on, but that doesn't mean my nipples don't throb in sympathy every time I look at the picture.

ARGH! Sweet heyzeus... I have never seen nor imagined such an occurrence, and this gives me all the more motivation to NEVER RUN. PAIN. Ugh.

Question... Why didn't he just take his shirt off? He TOTALLY could've avoided a week or more nipple pain and tucked the damn thing into his waistband! It's hard to sympathize with him when the answer to his problem seems so OBVIOUS!!!

Don't you love what just the slightest slip in English grammar can do to a sentence?

Holy ouchies! I've never heard of it either, but I can't sympathize with a masochist.

I think those little band-aids could have helped, but then there wuold have been the issue of ripping off the nipple hair. Either way, why run the marathon???

i usually wear band-aids when i run, and yes it sucks when you have to peel them off. chafing typically doesn't become an issue until you get into longer double-digit distances. plus, and this may seem odd - you don't really notice it while you're running (at least i don't). it's simply unsightly and embarassing more than anything else.

give the guy a break though. if you've never run a half-marathon, you have no idea how exhilarating it is to finish. it is well worth some minor nipple discomfort.

n00b. They make nipple tape to avoid just such pain. (And you avoid ripping out the hair by shaving first, duh.) Still, long-distance runners are masochists, IMO.

I have that same t-shirt - minus the ltd edition nipple print.

Ouch!!! That is so bad! I've had that happen before on the left nip from some crappy monogram on a polo. I wasn't even running a marathon. Mine didn't bleed that bad either.

Poor guy...

I'm just pretending that his nipples ooze ketchup. It helps.
