The glorious female form is not particularly well designed for, to use the technical term, jiggling. Running involves a great deal of jiggling. As of yet, no one has found a way to detach their boobs and leave them at home during a run, BUT there have been advances in boob cages; another technical term here; sports bras. Ladies if you have anything bigger than a B - invest in a good boob cage! I could bore you with my "Bloody Boobage" story of Niagara Falls International 1/2 marathon 2014, but the girls scarred for life and still a little bitter.
I'm also going to spare you the pictures of broken toe, black toes nails and bloody sneakers but I can assure you a career as a foot model is not in my future :(
(If you need a boob cage check out the
Enel Bra I love it)
You had me at boobs...
ReplyDeleteI prefer them uncaged though.
Bloody sneakers? You are a serious runner.
I don't run....my boobs are just way too big for that nonsense, even with a sports bra cage. 42 DD if you please. lol Sorry about your foot though.
ReplyDeleteBoom cage...the things we have to go through.
ReplyDeleteI don't run! Your talk of blackened toenails and jiggling boobs make me happy that I've made the right choice ;)

Doesn't sound very pleasant. Remind me again why it is you do this to yourself?
ReplyDeleteOh I know what you mean as the ta-ta's actually hurt when one runs...not that I have run in years. I have a friend who has done this marathon and know all about bloody feet and blackened toe nails
ReplyDeleteLove the image of leaving ones boobs at home. Actually, I could. I had a double mastectomy 14 years ago and no reconstruction. I wear a mastectomy bra when out in public, so if I did run (which I don't), I could leave it at home.
ReplyDeleteI just came from two hours of taekwon-do - jumping, bouncing, kicking, running, and punching. I can completely identify with wanting to leave my boobs at home.
ReplyDeleteMy sport also leaves me with B for Bruises, which are normally a bad thing but totally a badge of honour when you've sparred.
Not much of an opinion on this though..

The best sports bra I ever had was Swedish. Wish I could get another one - cost a fortune, though!
