I go the band aid over the nipples route myself; never causes any trouble for me. Nice work! I go the band aid over the nipples route myself; never causes any trouble for me.

When I read about your personal best on the 1 mile, I had to do what I've been meaning to do for awhile now, and run a 5K for time. I just did not have a good 5K time on my last race, and I wanted something to go off of for more training in the next 4 weeks before my actual 5K race. I used to have the same problem with the chafing when the Army used to have 100% cotton PT shirts and 4+ mile runs. Today the shirts are 50/50, but I wish they would go to a loose-fit technical shirt. I have to protect my thighs with biker shorts, or now I use Under Armour shorts...for 19 years now. Again, keep up the great work! Fantastic. Again, an inspirational story from you.

I used to get chafing until I bought some Adidas techfit gear. Bodyglide is a fantastic lubricant as well. Aah I see. I used to get chafing until I bought some Adidas techfit gear.

I've never heard of anything that totally prevents chafing or rubbing. It's like anything else - once you've started something (like a blister or whatever), you're pretty much toast. What does work is lubricants and barriers, and that's where I goofed big time! :) Although you've reminded me: I must finish and publish my 'gear' page. Already have ‘em.

You should try investing in technical running clothes. The chafing is not a problem at all with the newer fabrics. Ten miles is my maximum run so far as well.
