Mine runs too. I've got to take Kleenex with me every time I run. Worse if I'm running into wind. Worse in the winter.

That needs to be a signature quote! Big grin

No Mine starts running really badly. I usually end up with snot rockets all the way down the area of which I am running = Snot Rockets

Mine runs constantly. I leave a slime trail. I've tried bringing kleenex, but it's too complicated, and they tend to get wet.

The things we have to put up with just to get some exercise! Thanks for the responses, I guess this means we're all either normal or abnormal. Wink

Do any of the gals have Scouts' gagging problem? Evil grin

What's the solution? Does the nasal spray work? What about the nose strip the football players use? Other good drugs? Tom I admit that I did bring Kleenex on my runs during the winter.

....especially while running in the city....so, I'd think it's the body's "normal" response to clearing toxins! Yes

= one more reason!!!

I'm like the majority here, my nose runs constantly. I try to remember to carry kleenix as well, sometimes they hold up and sometimes I have to rely on my shirt and or wrist band. The snot rocket thing just doesn't work for me.

I'm very snotty as well. I use cut up cloth diapers for my snot rags. They're the ones that are totally flat that make great dust rags, not the thick prefolds. I cut them in like 6x10 squares. They tuck nicely into the waist band of whatever I'm wearing. Very absorbent and they don't fall apart. I've never been able to do the snot rocket thing. It gets all over my face. I guess I don't blow hard enough Roll eyes

Besides being totally gross, I don't want to accidentally hit BadDawg during the next race.

You're a thoughtful guy, it's very much appreciated. Only really affects me during the winter, but that's why I wear gloves and long sleeves. Clowning around

It was at mile three of Providence that I heard the first snot rocket of the day, and smiled and thought to myself it's an official marathon now.

It usually runs down the back of my throat and makes me gag.

It's like shooting fish in a barrel. I don't even have to make the joke.

I don't get it. Could someone explain it to me? Thank you. Wink

I let it collect, and drip, then spit. I can spit like a pro.
