Bleeding Nipples

[Tubbers]

This problem is teh suck, Talus had a good response, but yeah basically wear a tight synthetic shirt, cotton REALLY sucks for long distances. If you can't go out and get one some of my friends who I ran Cross-Country with tell me Duct tape or band aids work.

I nominate the duct tape Idea. Not for any beneficial reasons for you, but just because I want to see you duct tape your nipples.

And talus is a genius, listen to him.

you dont need anything fancy to prevent this from happening. all you need to do is put some medical tape over them vertically. bandaids will work too, but if you are doing this regularly, buying tape will be cheaper in the long run. buying tighter undershirts will sometimes help, but it will depend entirely on each specific shirt. i used to have to wear very thick and coursely woven soccer jerseys that were not cotton, so you can't just say buy something synthetic and the problem will go away; it all depends on the weave of the shirt. vasoline or other lubricants didnt really help in that situation because the shirt would just wipe it away and i would have had to use alot of it to work, but that was uncomfortable. i would say medical tape would be your best bet

Update: ran Marine Corps Marathon today (just over 4 hours, didn't crack my 4 hour goal due to battling quad/calf cramps, due to dehydration, from mile 11 or 12 to 26.2 Also, no nipple bleeding for me. I used Bodyglide, bandaids and had a Brooks singlet on. = Success! I did see a bunch of bleeders though after I had finished.. usually they are in the 5-6 hour crowd, and I had already had a few beers from the beer garden so I couldn't help but laugh. Should have pointed them to this thread...


(other than the sore ass feet, I'm fine.)

when i first saw this thread i swore it was going to be a name for a emo or heavy rock band or something

[evilbau]

friends who were into distance running told me that they used scotch tape but band-aids seem like the best solution

This topic has been brought up at some other point on these forums before. It's caused by the excessive sweat that builds up in your shirt and creates friction against the sensitive skin on your nipples. Underarmour is a great invention and everyone should use it.

im just amazed this made it to page 2, rofl. thank you for all the advice everyone, plenty to take into consideration. :D

Bleeding Nipples are serious business.

Going to agree on the body glide / shirt solution. I only have one shirt that does that to me--it's some underarmor loose-fitting shirt that just tore me up all to hell. Everything I've ever used from Brooks or Hind have always worked really well for me. Especially like the Hind stuff. ^^

we love our nipples.

Late to the game, but would a rashguard work?

I use it surfing for that exact reason; bare nipples, wax, moving ocean, not a good combination.

No idea how it'd feel running a marathon, but they're cheap

* Not wearing a shirt.
* Sticking a small bandage or surgical tape over each nipple before the commencement of exercise, to act as a barrier between skin and cloth.
* Applying petroleum jelly or other suitable lubricants to the area prior to exercise to prevent chafing.
* Using specialized products available to prevent the condition such as rash guards.

all of these work, and yeah, simple

and to the guy above me, yes, rash guards work,
