OT: Question for the Runners !!

[devo55]

I have become quite the runner but am battling with chafe, what do you gents use to avoid this problem ??

I know I am opening myself for huge abuse but I miss the banter !!

If you are chafing between your thighs, like so many of us big guys do when we run, check out the Ironmind site. They just started marketing a product for us strong guys to reduce chafing there that is a bit like a deoderant stick, but lubricates. I think it is www.ironmind.com, but you can do a search on Ironmind too.

The old time Cherokee shaved or pulled all of their body hair except for on their heads and the men pulled/shaved all but a scalp lock of that. Can you imagine using fresh water mussel shells for tweezers and sharpened up as razors?

My budget wasn't quite that low. Clippers should do fine for me, thank you.

Now, that's the one. I love Ironmind stuff. I wouldn't consider myself big - 6 foot 85 kilos but I chafe right in that spot and it hurts, I kept looking down to see if I was bleeding but upon close inspection it was only several red bumps.

Now, the next issue, trying to buy it in the UK !!

Thanks for all the replies fellas !!

If you have problems, give me a holler, and I'll ship you some. We can work out payment.

I run only when chased. That strategy has helped me to avoid chafing.
