Running And Peeing Story

I've heard a story of Steve Spence (Ship's head coach), from a former Ship runner, taking his team on a run. If the story is correct, he surges ahead on a run with the team and while the team wonders what he is doing they start to see him run funny and see circles in the air of yellow.

Just wear a pair of depends undergarments and you can pee all you want. Make sure to wear a larger pair of running shorts than usual. You won't have stop anymore and ruin your training.

I already said I can't run and pee at the same time.

Yet you can jog in place.... Just practice inching ahead and before you know it you'll be sprinting while urinating.

I had to come to a complete stop and then start peeing THEN I started jogging in place.

Jezz. Depends will absorb the pee. Pick one from this website.

If you're having trouble letting the yellow river flow then try an old trick. Carry a really warm, but not too hot, water in a bottle big enough for your hand to easily fit in. When you need to pee, but can't, just stick your hand in the bottle and think of rushing water or a waterfall. Get a good visual, and also imagine the sound the water makes, relax your muscles and your problem should be solved.

Steve Spence taught himself to pee on the run for preparation for the 1991 World Championships marathon in hot and humid Tokyo in August. He taught himself to consume large amounts of fluids and relieve himself without breaking stride.

It worked because he rolled up most of the field the second half of the course to win the bronze medal on a brutally hot day.

Relax my muscles after I already ran 43 miles in 3 days?...during a 12 mile run? Carry a bottle of water? Why am I even replying to you?

The answer you seek is within you, grasshopper.

It's 12:30 AM. I'm goin to sleep. Luckily I don't have to run a double tommorow.

Self absorbed little prick.

It's an acquired skill. Start by practicing peeing in your pants while standing, then progress to walking and jogging.

Soon you will be able to pee without even thinking about it and you will have regressed to the state of bladder control of a newborn.

Hello, I am on Shippensburg Cross Country team, and I too had heard a story of coach peeing on one of our runners the year prior, I confronted him with these allegations and he denied, Later that run I looked over as he called my namen and there he was..........urinating....true story. My friends and I have all tried to master this technique but have all failed.

I tried to pee while on the trail today and I am pretty sure a female runner saw me at the finish of my urination. Can I get into trouble for this? I was listening to make sure no one was coming but my pee was too loud and it lasted forever.

It's a very old trick. I don't know the origins, but it really does work.Trouble Urinating(the medical term is urinary hesitance or retention)You may feel your bladder is full and have the urge to urinate, but have trouble getting the urine to start flowing. Once the urine starts to flow, you may notice that it comes out more slowly than usual, as though there is no force behind it. As a result, it may take much longer than usual to empty your bladder. Fortunately, this is usually a temporary problem that disappears on its own in a week or two. If you have this problem, report it to your doctor or nurse. And in the meantime, let water run in the sink while you're trying to urinate or immerse your hand in a cup or sink full of warm water. Either trick may help the urine start flowing. If you are unable to pass urine at all (this is rare, but it does happen), let your doctor or nurse know right away.

If you don't know how to relax your muscles you're already in trouble.

Many cyclists are able to pee while on the bike. Sometimes so they don't have to pedal and pee at the same time one biker will push the other biker along as they pee. It is quite the skill.

it's easy on the bike if you can freewheel for a few seconds.

some of your beloved IM triathletes - including me - do pee while running. have a guy running on your neck helps not to stop.
