I ended up knocking out 10 miles on my walk yesterday but unfortunately landed myself with a bit of chafing. π¦
I felt fine for the whole 10 miles but as soon as I got out of the car when I got home, I suddenly had to walk side-to-side. It was so raw and stung like crazy when I showered off, but it feels a lot better this morning!! Not raw anymore, just ugly. π Hopefully it doesnβt scab over!!
FYI, I wear biking shorts specifically to prevent chafing between my thighs! However I was kept pulling my shorts down at various locations on the trail to take pics for yβall, and once I was really sweaty, it became very difficult to pull them back up all the way because they stuck to my skin. Iβm pretty sure this happened because the last time I pulled them up, I accidentally left a small air pocket near my crotch. I believe this chafing is from the seams of the gusset part of my shorts rubbing up against my thighs since they werenβt pulled quite high enough.
Anyway, donβt say I never did anything for you π
