First off...congrats on the run!

Second...get an under Armour compression shirt that is snug / tight...it is a life saver! No chaffed nipples!

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.

tape

Do you people wear tape when you wear white t-shirts?

I swear to god, I love the "I gave up on life" look of the white t-shirt, but my nipples keep showing right through when I stand straight.

People who have really given up on life give zero fucks about what strangers think of their nipples.

Rock those T-Shirts Lebowski.

What? Why would you wear tape when you wear a white t-shirt?

You would have to be buying really cheap fabric in order to have the color of your nipples showing through t-shirts.

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.

Na, I meant the shape shows through, so you see the elevated spots. On the other hand, I have two summer-weight shirts that show the color through. I wore those shamelessly for a year...

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

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

you were referring to the running right? because that exercise stuff is bad for you

Is that real?

No.

Tiny bandaid before all runs solves it no problem. The runners lube stuff in that gray deoderant like stick is worthless overhyped crap, use bandaids.

Losing a nipple is nothing like losing your 3rd testicle -

Gold Bond Friction Defense to keep those perky nipples in-tact.

Depends on the material your shirt is made of on whether or not it you get that kind of rub.

My recommendation is to invest in some 3M Durapore surgical tape and keep it with your running gear. I tear off 2 pieces for races. It's water resistant and won't move. I've worn it for 3 marathons in Florida.

And you can sell it on ebay after the race.

Not sure why that's supposed to be funny. Durapore is good stuff and won't come off like Band-Aids.

There's actually a product for this called "Nip Guards" that have a recessed center and have foam. Surgical tape is much cheaper and more versatile.

whats with all the necros?

 

[Spacehead]

Nothing like a good nipple necro to help keep the forums moving along.

After 7 years, have they grown back?

Running shirtless is undignified. Why not just cut holes in your shirt around each nipple?
