inner thigh chaffing and running

[db5]

Anyone with any good ideas for preventing the upper inner thigh chaffing rash I get during long runs when I wear running shorts? Thanks! Deb

Bodyglide is a good one. I use Aquaphor myself.....

I wear spandex shorts under my running shorts.

I've become a big fan of BodyGlide (thanks Cheetahs!! ) especially on my long runs. My problem is that my body keeps me guessing, I put it on where I have been chaffing and lo and behold I find a new spot (under the H/R monitor, under my waterbelt.... x( ) where chaffing has occurred. Good luck, it's surprising how painful chaffing can be!!

BodyGlide. You will be able to use it other places, too! Under the arms to keep the shirt from rubbing a rash into the skin, on the feet to prevent blisters from new shoes. It travels well and the "deoderant style" packaging makes application "no mess".

And I thought I was chafing because of my fat inner thighs!!! :7 :7 :+
I may have to look into this BodyGlide stuff!!! Down here, chafing can lead to fungal infections (according to DH)

Bodyglide is great! They sell teeny body glides too and it fits right in your pocket.

I haven't tried Bodyglide but I wear capris and that solves the problem.

Bodyglide! I first found out about this stuff because competitive swimmers use it for the rub on the shoulders and under the arms of those teeny weeny really tight racing suits. But it works well for the inner thigh problems as well. I found out that even when I am a size 6 my thighs STILL rub! x(
