Anyone have some remedies for chafing on the inner thighs? Been running on the treadmill for the last 3 days and it hurts like a b!tch. I smother the rash in lotion daily.

If you've already go got chafing, rubbing chapstick on it (using your finger!, unless of course you want kiss your own inner thigh) will help clear it up. Last time I had the problem I used Carmex and it was nearly gone by the next day.

To help prevent the issue, use the Body Glide that tri_vol mentioned. I've never used it, but it is very highly regarded.

Just bought the new Garmin 110 watch

Looks like this but mine is all black. Did 3.5 and used the heart rate monitor. So nice to push a button and go.

My sis-in-law ran that race too. How did you do?

I did decent. Nothing too great. I ran it in just under 2 hours. I'm not too sure on what a good time for a half-marathon would be, but I was hoping for better than that. It was my first one though so hopefully I'll do better next time.

Nice. Is that the one that automatically downloads info on to your computer? I'm still on the fence about buying one. I want the one that can be used for swimming as well. It's over $300.

No that would be the garmin 405 or 305. This has the heart rate monitor, gps, and it synches in a couple of minutes. It has a longer battery life then the 405 and doesnt have the issue with the bezel. The 305 doesnt really look like a watch, so I chose this new model that came out. When I couldnt get the heart rate strap to work on my timex.

4 miles. Found a new trail that seems to be popular with the ladies. Going to run here again.

Side note, muggy this evening. Took my shirt off and instantly regretted eating cake, a bowl of banana pudding, 3 servings of roast beef, mashed taters and 2 bowls of cherry cobbler and ice cream this weekend.
