Did you know that poorly fitting running shorts/top and singlet can cause excessive rubbing, chaffing
and even severe skin rash?
The biggest culprit for causing chaffing is cotton clothing because once it gets wet from perspiration
it tends to stay wet and also tends to hug your body.
That’s why it is important that you select light weight and loose clothing that does not cause
rubbing. The best clothing to wear for your marathon preparation is light nylon, `Coolmax’ or
`Polypro’ clothing. That way the perspiration is wicked away from your skin and evaporates rapidly
and prevents chaffing, rubbing and skin rash
“Some people say I have attitude – maybe I do…but I think you have to. You have to believe in yourself
when no one else does – that makes you a winner right there.” — Venus Williams
I have no doubt you can do this. You just need to believe it yourself. Hundreds of
beginners have already run a marathon by following this marathon training system. It’s just a matter of
doing it.
