My 4 mile run on Tuesday was not so fun. To start with, it was god-awful humid at 9 am (never a good sign), and before the halfway point my inner thigh started to chafe. I mentally slapped myself in the forehead for forgetting to put on the bodyglide and had the usual inner dialog: let's stop... you know the b.s. Well, I decided it was an easy run, so I should just suck it up, mark this as a consequence for not being prepared, and finish.
And I did. It wasn't pretty. Yay for me.
When I got home, I realized my bike shorts had given out -- they were about 8 years old anyway -- and the chafing was because a small section of tender skin was being abraded by the tattered cloth.
Sheesh. I should have stopped.
I'm afraid I won't be able to do my 1 hour run tomorrow. My plan is to use good shorts and lots of body glide and play it by ear.
Dang! Damned if you do and damned if you don't. Keep your fingers crossed I can heal quickly.
Here's my run:
