Body Odour

i have noticed in recent months the muckyness and smell of running kit.. have often do you wash your running kit if at all?

is this why AllanT is on an island miles from human contact?

After every run otherwise I get in bother. I'm going to treat myself to some of that expensive merino wool stuff. I've read that you can wear it for weeks without it ponging.

After every run Pengy - do mine on a synthetic wash usually 40 degrees no fabric conditioner - knackers your gear!

I'm a 30 degree man myself.

Not at all I always keep my kit scrupulously clean. On never knows when one will bump into some nice totty when out racing or training. Sometimes if I feel my kit is a bit mucky, I have even been known to take a bath mid race!!....http://gallery41920.fotopic.net/p24506620.html

Kit gets washed in next load, which in our house is within 24hrs. Despite this I've got a favourite old Helly which starts to ming as soon as I start to run . I've tried a boil wash, but nothing seems to cure it, luckily I train on my own ......or is it that noone wants to train with me .

Alan, it looks like someone has hung you up on an invisible washing line .

Oh is that what BO stands for?
I thought it was a fell race like the Kinder Trial.
A navigation event with at least 125 feet of ascent per mile.

Pengy, wasn't it issues relating to unwashed running kit and the offensive smell that led to you being banished to Lancashire?
