I don't think I'd want my first run with a strap around my chest to be a 13-miler. I've heard too many "chafing" complaints around here. I'm just sayin' is all.

 

[Stitcher]

hmmm...<br>
hadn't thought of that ....<br>
I LOOOOOVE presents.<br>
lol<br><br>
It's supposedly a "new" sort of strap.<br><br>
I think it also has one of those one touch things, too...maybe that will be something.<br>
of course....I'd have to read the directions before then.

Hey, nice gifts!<br>
I agree that you shouldn't use it at your race, especially a long one.

 

[Stitcher]

Yeah...<br>
so...I've decided to wear it to choir practice instead.<br><br>
lol<br><br>
Wonder what that will do to my HR.<br><br>
I have to figure all the buttons out, anyway.

 

[mommelisa]

oh, definitely use aquaphor. no chafe, guaranteed!

I love the present man. He came to my house yesterday with a package from swimoutlet containing 2 new goggles and 2 grab bag suits. I have to say the TYR suits are more presentable than Speedo (obnoxious but yeah, I'm wearing it).

 

[Stitcher]

I find TYR to be a bit short in the torso for me.<br>
Speedo will stretch out the most of the brands, from what I can tell.<br><br>
On the other hand, I buy suits by the style of the back......and the location of certain colors.<br><br>
NO RED....EVER. Except as a possible incidental color, or on piping....Red is SEE THROUGH more than anything. Especially when wet (learned that one the hard way in college...oy!)<br>
No Green in strategic "part" areas....see through.<br>
White's not as see through as you'd think, usually cause it's super well lined.<br><br>
Black/Blue/Purple are the staples for me.<br><br>
Speedo's "endurance" fabric really does last a looooong time without breaking down.
