Oh god this is going to hurt for the next few days.

I hope the scab doesn't break while I am at work wearing a white dress shirt.

PSA -- never run in the rain.

Coincidentally, I just rubbed one off while thinking about your nipples.

There are running lubricants for this purpose. I've also had it affect my thighs and groin in an unpleasant way.

I get that when I play soccer in a jersey and get drenched in sweat.
I haven't made the jump to lube or bandaids yet.

Its because you sweat salts, then the sweat evaporates after awhile of endurance running as you get dehydrated and the salt is abrasive. I would put tape over them or something.

You can sweat so much that when it dries your clothes are stiff with dried salt, as if they were over starched. It can happen while you are still running, so yeah.

Its amazing how much salt your body can store. No wonder eating a ton of salt and sitting around all day is bad for you.

OUCH!

When I was a kid I dove into the pool and scrapped up one nipple pretty bad on the rough concrete on the bottom. Now, I have one nipple that's an innie and the other is an outie.

... such strange, new, and foreign notions.

Quick parents, hide yo' kids from the interwebs! We must not expose them to such profane ideas.
