Forums >General Running>A Particular Problem
So, it's about that time of year again. End of fall, wintertime, etc. And as I live rather near to Chicago, it gets rather cold. But thats fine. I enjoy winter running; I get my best training done during it. However, I do have a problem. My dick gets rather cold. Not slightly uncomfortable cold. Cold. I constantly check it make sure it doesn't, you know, fall off. But it causes me to, how to put it, enjoy my winter base running far less than I normally would. I like base. I like miles. I like tempo. I even like feeling somewhat nippy on my runs. What I don't like is my cock going numb 25 minutes into a run and expressing its displeasure in full while it thaws afterward. That is not enjoyable. At all. Even with linered shorts, boxers over them, and pants on, it doesn't stop the pain.
So, as Underarmor and like seem uninterested in producing a line of different colored Cock Cozies for such a problem, I ask my fellow male runners: How do you deal with a cold dick.
I was thinking of getting some small but thick wool socks and seeing how that works out. Thoughts?
>> How do you deal with a cold dick.
A very large wool sock.

surely one of you search function experts can pull up last year's thread on the topic. I believe there were a large number of helpful suggestions.

He apparently just needs a small.
I have a pair of these for when it gets really, really cold out. They work well: a nice cozy inner lining with a wind-stopping outer layer. It's a Canadian company, but you might be able to order from them down South (or find something similar).

My apologies. I searched dick, cock, willy, et all. But I forgot penis. Silly me. Carry on with your day.
Nah. By the time winter gets here in two and a half months he'll either have figured out how to get dressed or quit running.
And anyway, I usually just use one of these:
Just be careful zipping it up.

But seriously, Craft Windstopper boxer briefs.

I have felt your type of pain before. When it come to this topic for me I ensure i have some compression drawers on to help keep the big boy close to the blood flow. I also us an outer layer of underroos and then some shorts. If it is really cold i will put a layer between the dude and the compression to halp with warmth. If you get out there and discover that you do not have enough use a glove to layer it up and then pull your sleeve down. a cold finger is better then a cold weiner all day long!
