You make the call: To chafe or not to chafe

Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

Monday evening, I was presented with a dilemma: All of my nice nylon, breathable walking shorts were dirty (thanks to our broke-down washer), and my choice was to do nothing and keep those baby-smooth inner thighs-

Hold on, I’ll wait while you swallow that little bit of throw-up in your mouth and try to picture ANYTHING else…

-or put on the cheap-ass Wal-Mart cotton shorts, knowing they would chafe me.

I went with chafing. I needed to walk last night more for consistency’s sake than anything else, and didn’t want to use the shorts as an excuse. Unfortunately, I hurt. A lot.

Was it worth the chance of missing the next day or two of workouts? Does the fact that it is early in the process of changing my behavior have any impact?

LOL!

I just wrote a paid post on RunFatAssRun about my pickiness with shower faucets due to my need to feel clean. :-)

ooh I know that feeling well. But I'm with Marianne-- option number three. You're working out after all, nobody cares if your shorts are clean!
I think that continuing was probably a good choice. the first day you skip makes the second day easier to skip. Hope you can solve your painful thighs problem to keep going!

Heck, I would have chosen a third option - wear the dirty shorts! :D

Also - I have no idea if this would help or not... but in the summertime, when I wear skirts, I use deoderant or antiperspirant on my inner thighs to minimize the chub-rub.
