Thats a "boy thing" Angelic. Not so bad now he's 14, but a few years ago i use to find his dirty pants in the uplights, on top of the kitchen cupboards, all the places where he knew i didn't clean on a regular basis. I've told him, as soon as he gets his own place and i come to stay i'm going to leaving my teeth everywhere!
This whole thread made me laugh out loud and prompted my hubbie to ask what is so funny!!
I'm a sufferer of runners snots too and, as I normally run alone, I have mastered the art of the "snot rocket", although, up here where I live, we call it a "builders blow"! My husband, an ex-sunday league footballer, taught me how to do it properly - how romantic is that?!!
I also suffer from a runny nose and use snot rockets (aka NCO's - nasal clear outs). When running with others I always take a look over my shoulder to make sure no-one else will get any fallout. However I sometimes end up covering my hand or shoulder. I must look like a right mess when I finish my run. Maybe I should choose a more suitable coloured t shirt.
I could do with a nosebag in winter but I'm OK in the summer. Never tried snot rockets but I've blown my nose on a dock leaf a few times. Useless though - just moves the slime around your chops.
As a child I got a crayon stuck up my nose, and had to go to hospital to have it removed.
I also suffer from a snotty nose, but find my tee shirt works best - I agree with previous poster that tissues fall to bits!
BTW if she has a cold, my 9 year old girl shoots out snot rockets when she sneezes, they just dangle off her chin, and she yells "Mummy, help!!!" Me and her little sister (4) find it highly amusing, but she doesn't!!
well thanks to this thread had never really noticed that my nose did in fact run whilst out for a stretch of my legs, But now i`m fully aware that it does and how annoying it is, cheers
I find it difficult to regulate my breathing when I get into anaerobic exercise (I don't think about it during other exercise). During tough hill sessions I can often start to hyperventilate right before teh top of the hill. I think that a runny nose makes this even harder. It is constant and I feel that when I try to breathe in through my nose it closes up,. The whole process of 'in through the nose out through the mout' just seems to create problems. Are there any suggestions on how to develop my breathing technique?

Yep Angelic - I have a boy!!!! As a child, and a girlie, i was paranoid about having a clean face.
Muttley - with my son the challenge is finding his collection of toenail clippings

I do actually run with a pack of kleenex....
I am snot central when I am not running so beyond redemption when I am!!
For the record I have never fired a Snot Rocket... and nor do I intend to...
{quietly prints mutters masterclass and sneaks off into the garden....}
Full fat....more fizz per snort
