Run bow legged.



Seriously, wear synthetic clothing, seamless if possible. Been a couple decades since I ran for long distances but I used petroleum jelly. I think gold bond makes something called Runners defense? Moleskin might also work.

Congratulations! That's a commitment, I distinctly remember my first half.

You can get this on Amazon. Way less messy than vasoline.

Chafing depends a lot on things like how much you sweat and your body type.

Wearing non cotton clothes will help too but when its skin on skin something like body glide will help a lot.

I competed at 187lbs.
I'm old and never again will I do low rep strength work....too many injuries. Now it's all about hypertrophy and cosmetics. I'm all show/no go at this point.

5 sets of 2 reps at 235 lbs on Bench.

Beat that, old men.

In all seriousness, who is the most yoked planeteer?

Anyone moving serious weight on here?

Tonight my last set was 285 x 4

Congrats! Did you have a target time you were shooting for? How'd you do relative to your expectations?

I don't usually have trouble with chafing other than once when it was really cold and I ran a race in sweats. That was not fun afterwards. This was before I bought running tights and it's the reason I bought running tights. So I can't help you on that issue.

I've been really out of shape the past few years, but I'm working my way back. I ran a 10K yesterday. I'm slowing down with age so my time wasn't thrilling (1:06:56), but it was better than I expected and I came in 2nd in my age/gender division. Granted, there were only five guys in my division, but I still came in 2nd. Being in the 60-69 age category now has really winnowed down the competition.
