Ouch!
So I finally understand the full extent of chaffing. I didn't fully realize how cut and raw my skin really was until this morning. This is probably too much information but oh well - I have scabs under my boobs and in the middle where I so wisely stashed my cell phone during the run. I also have a nice battle wound on my right hip where my radio was clipped to my shorts. Ouch!!! Not fun!! I look like I ran threw a blender. Not to mention my shin splints are out of this world right now. I did however, enjoy a night of watching Juno (hilarious movie btw) with ice packs strapped to both shins. It was enjoyable. No pain no gain - right?

Yeah, I have an on-again off-again shin thing happening to my right leg. Yesterday it hurt, but I ran through it. I woke today to no pain at all.
Rachel mentioned a shoe wallet thing for your cell...might be a good idea. Chaffed boobs is never a good thing.
I'll definitely be looking into the shoe wallet - or just ditching the cell all together. I only had it in case it got dark while I was still out there since it was a dark country road...I'll just have to start earlier.
This website has a shoe pouch on it and also has a steel id thing on it too, so as to better identify your passed out body. Also good for the bars, I'm sure.

They have some cool reflective shoe laces too and blinky lights.
I have a RoadID and I highly recommend it. I travel for my job and spend a lot of time in strange towns/cites/states. I would hate to get hit by a bus and no one know who I am...
I just bought a small camera so that when I am running in strange places I can take pictures of anything interesting I see. Anyone know of a little case for it that I could strap to my arm?
