The not so slippery slope...

It has been brought-en to HP03's attention that some of her teammates are experiencing a little skin irritation due to their prolonged, high intensity workouts. Ladies, after completing my first 2.5 hour run last weekend, I can relate. The skin behind my arms felt like my older brother had flown down to DC, broken into my apartment and given me a serious Indian sunburn while I slept.These are things you don't think about until it happens to you or if some kind soul with slightly more endurance sport experience opens your eyes to the dreaded chafe and the beloved BodyGlide. It is sort of like a stiff, scent free, hair wax in the form of a deodorant-like stick. You slap it on the inner thighs, back of the arms, (guys lube up those nipples) and then you head on out and work it for hours on end. Well, for like two hours, at which point you may feel compelled to reapply.

The company's website has a link for everyday use...yeah...not sure what that's all about..."Do you ever find that your pants are so tight that you get a rash along your waist band?"

Um...hell no, we run triathlons. Chafe this.

    Do you think body glide will consider becoming an HP sponsor?? Just a thought.
