Hilljackoutlaw “Elite runner”

I’ve got runner friends that have put band-aids on their nipples to prevent the painful “chaffing”.

I lost a bet once and had to run a mile in the winter in nothing but a pair of moon boots and buffalo bills logo'd wool sock on my dong. Ahh to be young and retarded again!

The moon boots must have been embarrassing.

I had a college teammate who did that every day it was under about 45 degrees. He’d get the circle bandaids and called them “nipple darts.”

Not gonna lie - the folks that told me they band aided thier nipples were tougher than me. I’d have just started walking. I’m not someone that cares much about running. I cramped up once doing a long mtn train run and an attractive woman stopped to give me water and ibuprofen- it was the best part of that whole run.

Don’t judge a book by its cover. I remember telling her “you should do the ridge run, I’ve done it 5 times.” hilarious.

Here’s tougher than 99.9999% of those who’ve ever logged into this place.

Made me think of this episode

Back in the 80s we wore “ankle weights” - jeans not much different.

State sanctioned?

The Barkley is fun to follow, I grew up in similar mountains, but no way I'd do something like that intentionally. This guy is pretty good at it. https://randomforestrunner.com/home/barkley-archive/

I was told by several before my marathon this was a necessity. Apparently those bald chested ninnies don't realize that with this much nipple hair my shirt hasn't touched my nips in decades.

Back in the day guys would wear women's panty hose to keep from chafing while hiking. At least they said that was why they wore them.

This doesn’t have anything to do with running, but your post reminded me about a nascar racer. I think it was Wally Dallenbach used to wear his wife’s underwear each race…..

He talked about it openly during interviews….
Kinda odd

My wife, who just ran the Black Canyon 100k without any nipple covers except clothes, said she is excited to see my nipple covers when I run the Rut 28k this fall.

In the tone of an addict introducing himself to a recovery group....
From 2007-2020 I had a running addiction that was fueled in part by your buddy Cam. As a "husky" child of Gen X I never much appreciated aerobic activity but begrudgingly found the weight room and sprints while playing high school football. In 2005 I found myself facing middle age weight gain and Cam's writing about physical and mental toughness made me seek out a trainer and that eventually resulted in me signing up for a marathon training program with Team in Training. It involved an 18 week training period where I solicited my friends, family, coworkers and vendors to donate to the cause to pay my way to Alaska to run the Mayors Marathon. The next summer I continued down the path to destruction and ran the San Diego Marathon.

That led to trail running from 2009-2019 where i finished a couple 50k trail races, and did a few half marathon trail races quarterly each year. I started training with a couple of the top female trail runners including a couple Western States Finishers. It contributed in part to my marriage ending in 2015, and was what I used to cope with it. I became involved with a running store employee at my lowest point and when she was forced out of the industry by Covid and a degenerating hip, I broke my addiction to technical sportswear and Electrolyte tablets and rejoined polite society as a couch potato.

Now I'm recovering from a broken ankle and I feel like I'm being drawn to begin a couch to 5k program, so I'm here at this meeting so I don't break and relapse....
