Pit female runners - my wife has been having some pretty bad chafing issues "down there" ... what are you wearing that works for you under your shorts?
oh- i was talking about inside of upper leg; i dunno about 'down there'.
just had a great run; was planning on my normal 3, but added on an extra mile at the end because i was feeling good. not my fastest pacing, but i felt good the whole time. given that i'm coming off a cold, i'll take it.
the weirdest thing is that i was breathing well the whole time, never felt like i was sucking wind... i looked down thinking 'surely my heart rate will be normal!' and my heart rate was 187. i guess that's just how i am.
Okay guys--don't know where to begin. There's a half in October I want to run. I've never run a half before. I used to run 7-8 miles a day, but circumstances and laziness have put me in a rut. I want to get back into shape and start to build up stamina and endurance so that I can prepare for the race.
Do any of you have a pretty good program that I can either follow or tweak to work for me? Five months is plenty of time, but I want to make sure I do this right.
