Which do you use for long runs? Got my first chaffing of the year last week, and today is another long run.

I personally use boduglide, but wanted to hear others preferences.

Body glide on the thighs. Athletic tape over the nips.

A liberal application of body glide across all potential chafing areas has never done me wrong.

I used to use body glide, now its nipguards and proper running shorts.

body glide.

about the only time i use vaseline is mid-race (ultras) when chaffing has already occurred.

FYI - if you don't already have some diaper rash cream, its your best friend when you are chaffed.

I like bag balm for my feet but it will stain shirts

I use micropore tape on the nips and that's effective

Chamois buttr. I use it for bike and run. They make both big tubes and small packets you can take with you for reapplication.

I prefer the pain. Nothing beats a hot, stinging shower after chaffing

Don't forget the blood stains on the shirt from the raw nipples!

Vaseline. Body Glide does not work well with me.

I also heard that Neosporin is even better than either of the others but I have not tried that yet.

I prefer Squirrels Nut Butter for most activities. It does a good job and doesn't stain or stick to my clothes afterwards. If I really have to have something for all day, I'll use Trail Toes.
