Why holidays and running are not a good combination - part 2
If you are considering training while on holiday in a sunny seaside resort this summer then I advise you to learn from my painful mistake.
Yes, running in the sun is hot work.
Yes, a dip in the sea straight afterwards sounds like a great idea.
But no, not under any circumstances is it clever to do your training in swimming shorts.
Why? Because an hour of synthetic waterproof material rubbing against bare human flesh is a recipe for the worst chafing imaginable to man.
The cool sea water soothes this temporarily, but as soon as you try and walk the pain begins.
Be brave, ignore this advice, but waddling on the beach is not a good look -believe me, I've been there.
