Have been doing the c25k programme, all going well except when I came home today I had a sore on my (tmi) bum crack
I've been wearing a thong under my running leggings,
What do you all wear underneath or do you go commando?

Please be advised I am not hairy of hand and I have no interest in the finer details of your underwear or not I just want a pain free backside!

I wear m&s no VPL boy shorts in nude. Thongs would be agony!

Definitely never a thong! Black seam free pants, no sex appeal but no vpl either.

Thank you everyone, still a bit sore, went for a run yesterday with a pair of boy shorts and felt so much better and stopped everything wobbling about so much

LOL! sorry but you did make me smile! I'm glad you had a better run yesterday. I run in huge stretchy boy shorts, you need the comfort. Tesco do some that are pretty cheap.

I run in seam-free knickers from Sainsburys. The are microfibre fabric, super stretchy and dead cheap-think they were 6 or so for 2 pairs.

They are pretty fugly Bridget Jones-esque monsters but dont give me a wedgie, don't hold the sweat and don't chafe. Result!

Commando for me! I found anything else caused some kind of chafing somewhere Blush

Commando under proper running tights. A thong is a terrible idea! Ouch.

I could never go commando or wear big pants to run I feel I'd constantly be dealing with a wedgie situation.
I wear a thong to run although I agree u have to make sure it's a comfy one and a good fit, not too tight or pulling.
I might give the boy shorts a try I just think the vpl will be horrible ...??
