cut little holes in your jersey around your nipps
Run topless. That's always a few ounces less to carry on you as well.
Bodyglide seems to work well. It stay on quite a bit longet than vasaline. If that doesn't work try pasties!
Nipguards - can get them at most running places - at marathon expo this weekend at McCormick Place - or Vertels on Michigan Ave. Call around, but I'm sure they'll have them at teh expo at one of those kiosks that sell hats, gloves, sock, gels, etc. Get rid of excess hair around your nips to make sure they stick.
I have used them in a marathon and HM and long runs - they work and have never fallen off as long as you get a good seal - put them on when your skin is dry. I also wear them to work and family reuinions.
Spray some tape base on before putting the bandaids on. Something like second skin, I think thats what its called, anyway, thats the cheap, effective way to go.
RIP: D3 All-American Frank Csorba - who ran 13:56 in March - dead
