Waiting for my coffee to take its natural course before I head out for my morning run... I have been waiting for 2 hours. If I do not do this, I will be dashing off into the woods from the trail. Good thing I do not have work today.

Does anyone else have the runs while they run??? What do you do?

Sorry for the gross context, but hey? Everybody poops.

    I have to 'wait' before I go run, also, so I'd like to know too.

    I run in my neighborhood and stay close to home, just in case! It's the worst feeling in the world. :/ I feel your pain!

    Sorry I know this is not a laughing matter but it just made me laugh. I do not think its gross. its natural. And its just your body working, I realize when I start running my body sometimes starts digesting faster than usual.

    No, I was laughing when I typed it.

    I run on local trails and always carry a little t.p. just in case...

    I also stay away from leaves of three...

    I know from experience... During the disney half-marathon last year I had to pee so I went over to the woods and I think there were about 20 people making steam in the woods.

    I love that REM song.

    I can usually clench my buttocks for 20 minutes, so the first step on my long run is usually the local stately home where there's a public toilet! It hits me worse on the treadmill as I do my faster sessions there. I'm sure I amuse people behind me by running cross-legged as I have to finish before I go!

    Immodium?

    My hubby and another running buddy swear by it. I have not tried it though.

    I've been the one caught at mile 3.88 a few too many times with no place to go, no tp on hand and a bad bad bad situation. Seriously.

    Could you not just use a glycerin suppository before you left?
