Hi there,
I feel a bit embarrassed asking this but I have a bad timing issue with a 10-mile race coming up next weekend, unfortunately coinciding with, well, you know. I'm wondering if anyone has dealt with a feminine hygiene issue during a race of this length.
I guess I just don't want my protection to, um, give out mid-race.
Anyone had this situation? Any suggestions?
Thanks.
I can't find any written evidence to back it up but I am positive it stops in the water. Just make sure your family has a dark colored wrap for you and you'll be great!
I used to coach track and XC. I had a great runner who wet her pants (big time) after each race she ran. We never made a big deal out of it, I just always made sure someone was at the finish with black sweats for her. She would quickly slip them on at the finish and be done with it. She would change before her next race and we'd just do it again.
