Many of you will be wondering why I will be walking bow-legged this week like maybe I've been riding a horse on hour too many ... or maybe why in order to get up from a chair I will go "one, two, three, aaargh!!" or why i stink to high heavens... Well, if the title does not fully say it ... ahem ... I did not stop. I should have stopped around the 20km mark when the chafing (abrasion, rash) on my inner thigh was getting quite bad. Should have stopped around the 25 km mark when i saw blood on my right thigh. What I was really looking forward to was staying open legged facing a fan two hours after i managed to crawl home.
I hate this. I hate reading the notes on the anti chafing cream which says "do not put on open wound" AFTER I've experienced one of the most incredible pains in my whole life (i do not know if it beats giving birth, yet), when i decided to apply a full hand of it on my right thigh. I hate my iPod cum nike plus which made me run around 33 km instead of 30. I hate having to hold my laptop on my chest because I cannot sit down. I hate dreading taking a shower. I hate the fact that I must wear tights to run now. I mocked people wearing tights until now, but I will do anything to prevent this from happening. EVER. AGAIN.
PS. i've found this on the net. Udder cream - used to prevent cow's udders from chafing. Mooo!

-yappp
Busted!! I've always had an aversion to lycra/spandex outfits, but now I see the reason in wearing tights :)) My bad! I repent!!!
was it raining? oh man! sounds like bad abrasion -.- take care claud!
no, i didn't stop because i though that walking 5 km takes longer than running 5 km and thus I will bear the pain for lesser time. My logic rulz, i know :))
