Forums >Running 101>Base Layer/Underwear recommendation for well endowed new runners
Hi Everyone,
I've stayed away from running for a while, because I'm pretty well endowed and my privates hurt even after a short run.
It even hurts if i wear boxers and go to a theme park, by the afternoon my privates are sore from walking all day. I know i need more support, but haven't found anything that gets rid of the soreness/discomfort. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
Serious runners have a penectomy. If you're serious about running, you should probably consider that.
There was a point in my life when I ran. Now, I just run.
We are always running for the thrill of it

Why didn't I think about this until now. Think of all the weight saving. This will improve my 5k from 24:12 to sub 24 for sure.
Sorry. Can't relate.

You need a banana hammock. Check the produce section at your local grocery store. You might also check your local redneck truck dealer - they have these steer ball holders as decorative items for the rear bumper of a pickup truck. You might be able to strap one of those to a hydration belt to provide large ball support.
If all that fails, contact sport jester on this site and learn to walk on masking tape. Learning to walk/run like an ostrich will solve all ball-bounce problems.

Must be joking.
If your core is strong enough your manly parts do hang between your legs, in fact our testicles have a few muscles specifically designed to get in place when running and so do our penises, which by the way get properly retracted and (again) do not HANG. Not even Rocco Sifreddi would have a problem running commando.
So that I assume this is a) a troll or b) somebody in an incredibly bad shape.
Fun anyway, LOL

Do your boys hang low
Are they swinging to and fro
Can you tie them in a knot
Can you tie them in a bow

I think you should go back to cycling where you can wear tights all the time.

Try some kettleball exercises, which will eliminate any problems.

As a female I thought this was feasible/believable, until I read the walking around the theme park bit. thanks for educating me!

I wouldn't go the surgical or pharmaceutical route until I had exhausted other options, like the original poster I would try enhanced support base layer/ underwear first.

Only run when there is snow on the ground. When things get "testy" pack some snow in your pants. You'll be numb before you know it. Do not run in the cold without snow. That will just make your dick hurt.
