    Happens to me and I wipe it constantly, but the worst part is the loogie in the back of my throat that I can't swallow or hack out. Makes me feel like I'm going to gag or choke.

    I read in a running magazine a while back that you should use an anti-histamine spray or tablet to prevent it, apparently it's really common.

    I know one thing that can help clear nasal passages is something called a neti pot. I use it to help relieve sinus congestion/pressure, but maybe you could give it a try. It's just saline solution, so you don't have to worry about your heart racing. They're also available at pharmacies.

    3. If you're really desperate and it's long enough, your tonguel
