“MY NIPPLE!!” – K. Wich.
    by Jon HassingerSo yesterday I ran 9 miles straight at the same speed, without taking a break, through the first 5 1/2 innings of the Phillies' sucky loss.
I was not winded or light-headed, and my legs felt strong all throughout the entire run. But around the end of the 6th mile, I notice a bit of a tinge coming from my nippular area....
I looked down, and saw this:

This is very common in the marathon world. Luckily Dewitt informed me of this, prior to my training, so I wasn't too freaked out.
Looking at the blood only magnified my nipple pain, plus I was kind of embarrassed. Bloody nipples don't happen every day.
I threw on my secondary shirt that I use for after the run, to hide the hideousness of the blood, and completed the 9 miles.
I now am walking around with star-shaped band-aids on my nips, to prevent any further chafing.

Hahahahah I love it. Only a runner can appreciate this grossness.
However, I also told you many times about Body Glide. It’s less greasy than Vaseline but Vas also works well.

I didn’t know it was to be used on nips as well. I just thought on inner thighs. I will make the necessary changes.
