Pesky runny nose!

[Sillyme]

Hi Everyone,
This isn't likely to be high on your agenda list but
Do you have a pesky runny nose? I do… whether I am cycling, skiing or running (although not doing much of the last 2 these days), and even when I am gardening!

I found that breathing through my mouth usually helps reducing the need to wipe my nose so often, but it is not always advisable, especially in the countryside, unless you are looking for more proteins to absorb during your exercise routine...

It is such a nuisance that I am interested to know how you feel and what you do about it. I have prepared this 2 min questionnaire which will tell me if I am part of many or just a few finding this rather irritating...

Here is the google form: https://forms.gle/YJ9nCfsSiJrzuWhq8
Thanks in advance for your feedbacks and you also have the chance to win a £25 Voucher!

Cycling and a runny nose is pretty normal due to exercise and wind in your eyes. Snot rockets or a trailer with a supply of tissues may be needed.

OK sorry about this. I have resolved the issue now. If you want to try again please that would be great and let me know if you can't get in again. Thank you

I never thought of a trailer full of tissues.

I suffer big time from a runny nose when cycling, even if it's warm but in the cold weather it's a nightmare. I always have hanky in jersey pocket as just clearing nose never sufficient and of course incredibly unpleasant if in company.

Theres an art to clearing ones snozzle without a long streamer of snot wrapping around ones shoulder best to ascertain prevailing wind direction when clearing right or left nostril and always give a full bore PTSHOOOO!

yes agreed... I don't think I will ever adopt snot rocket unfortunately but seems effective when you have mastered it!

Yes that's me! I need to stop every so often to clear my nose - it is not so great when you are cycling in a group.

I have been known to select gloves based on their absorbancy.

I had a mate who was Mister snot rocket on the bike, he was also a talented sprinter who won a fair few races. His mum said he only won because everyone avoided him because of his snot.
