the titbit i promised… …. ..
the last couple of runs have resulted in my running tops chaffing my nipples (for the qstc guys, no they are not tingly) causing bleeding. did not realise until seeing blood on the tops after finishing – and confirmed when hopping in the bath and raising straight out from the pain once they were submerged.
any suggestions? – do you think people would think i am strange if i wanted to wear a training bra?
now if this does not elicit a flood of bagging, nothing will….

This is apparently a common problem for male runners and there is a lot of information on the web about it. You can use medical tape or even band-aids to cover your nipples, and they should be good to go. The medical tape will stay on better.
thanks Elisa. good advice.
Ba haha. Jim, i would say my heart bleeds for you but i dont think that quite covers it. I always knew you were a sensitive guy and now your nipples have proved it. You are a brave man with sensitive, bleeding nipples to post this but my advice would be to loose the shirt and then really raise your profile in Japan, could even meet new people… like police.
yes, a very sensitive little petal i am. plus i think if i showed my arctic suntan in public, everyone would lose their eyesight from the glare…
Dare I say it? Tough titties! Or at least little titties need to toughen up
are you saying i have small boobs?
Lube, Jimbo, lube 🙂
is that what lubrication is for? i thought it was for, um, well, er, never mind
Yes painful stuff jimbo, get the same when I wear thermals paddling my ski for +1hr duration, not bleeding just senstive, tape sound like a good idea or change your running top, check out the fabric, maybe go to a sports store, find a nice shop assistant who and explain about your nipples………..hahahaa LOL now just thinking what they would be thinking of you.
it was bad enough trying to ask (with a demonstration) for powder for the area where the top of my legs meet the bottom of my trunk….
i think people already think strange think things about me – just ask my martian mates…
Jimbo saaaaan,
When I heard on the grape vine of bleeding nipples I thought, what a champ! He’s running himself literally into the ground, and then keeps running along the ground until his bloody nipples bleed. I glowed with pride.
Then I find out its a chafing thing and all my pride for you curls in on itself and skulks away, ashamed for ever existing.
My suggestion is to combine the genius of your esteemed followers here and go for shirt off with nipple tape applied in a small cross. Then I at least don’t have to concern myself with sorely misplaced pride again.
i am sincerely sorry that my nipple saga has wounded your highly esteemed pride – i can say though, it was done without prejudice
How fortunate are you Jim to have experienced the plight of many a new Mother. I always felt that you had a strong feminine side, and now you are finally in touch with it.
that is fortunate? i would hate to see unfortunate
