Bleeding Nipples? - Not What You Think


No, this is not some kind of post about S&M or some other alternative sexual activity. Hell, it will probably make you cringe if anything. One of the goals I set for myself back in January was to actually get off the couch and to take a walk around the block at least once a week. Well, it is now November and that has happened about three times and on at least two of those occasions it was because I couldn't find my car in the morning when I went to look for it.

Well, now that I read what Ryan Reynolds had to say on the Rachael Ray show I'm kind of glad I didn't start walking around the block regularly or getting too much exercise. Why? Well it seems that when Ryan was training for the NYC Marathon he was obsessed with bleeding nipples. It seems that the constant friction during the race often causes people to bleed from their nipples. I know, I know and Ryan was really freaked out about it. They are painful. Don't ask. Long story but again, not anything sexual in nature. More of a salt water and canvas thing. Yeah, see where that takes your mind.

"Weird things happen to you," Reynolds told Ray. "Thankfully, all three nipples are fine. I was really concerned because I was at the finish line two years ago, and I watched these people coming in and it was like watching the music video to 'Thriller,'" he said. "It was really horrifying to watch, and I thought what am I going to do about this? I know you're supposed to put Vaseline on, and some people said if you put Vaseline on if your chest you're going to be fine. I was like, should I wear a running bra? Will people know?"

So, Ryan lathered up the nipples and chest with Vaseline right before the race. And, if you are so inclined and you want something to do while you are running for four hours, go ahead and bring a travel sized one and rub them down some more while running. Don't worry about the stares from your fellow runners. While they will be suffering after the race, you will be oily and content.

  8. My husband's a runner and when he first mentioned the bleeding nipples thing, I thought it was a joke. Nope. He slaps Bandaids on them for long runs.

    hahaaa!!! you know what's so funny about this? i just watched ryan reynolds (and michael j. fox - yay!) on r.r. (she's just wrapping it up in chicago) and it was one statement that she asked about. he's not obsessed at all. he made one statement. and when you say these things it makes it hard to tell what's accurate and what isn't. cuz this isn't.

    He's right, there isn't a band with the name of bleeding nipples... I did find a Jar Full of Nipples which sounds much worse.

  15. Eh, better a little vaseline than seeing the results of bleeding nipples - especially when the blood mixes with the sweat and the runners end up with blood streaks down the front of their shirts. They even make special little stickies for them (it really only happens to guys since girls are wearing sports bras).

  17. my boyfriend boogie boards so much that when he was younger his nipples would scab and bleed all the time until basically he only has these little half sized nipples. the other half scabbed and fell off.

    Mooshki, pleeeease explain!

    Right with bleeding nipples a lot of marathoners get really bad sudden diarrhea too. Glad we didn't have to hear Ryan Rubbing [Harriet Hellfire LOL] talk about that.

  19. If it had been Scarlett Johanssen instead of Ryan Reynolds I could have watched my Vaseline stock go thru the roof!

  20. Little Blue Pill, in case you ever check back here, Enty had a "blind" that said Leelee is a dominatrix.
