…because if I ever run a race in jeans, I’ll be sporting this look:
It isn’t that I don’t believe all the jean-wearing runners that say they were chafe-free, rather…um…well, yeah, I guess I don’t believe them. 🙂
Is it cheating to have a layer of protection between thick denim seams and my girlie parts? If so, then cheer me on during my race by yelling as I go by: “Go, Jill!! You can do it!! You cheater, cheater, pumpkin eater.”

/ May 29, 2012As an expert in how to properly run in denim without chaffing to death … you HAVE to have a layer of compression shorts underneath. That was my biggest mistake in my first 10K. Tighter jeans also help constrict the movement and possibility of chaffing.
I know too much about this topic.

/ May 29, 2012It’s only half cheating….you protect yourself from the chaffing (cheating if you’re jogging in jeans) but you still have the restriction factor of wearing jeans!
