I am new to running, and have a slightly embarrassing question. Does anyone have any advise on avoiding / treating chaffing between the legs and on the chest / nipples? Thanks.

Vaseline. Cheap and very effective.

Another option for the thighs is to wear a longer cut short. I have found that soccer shorts work real well for this.

I find they chaffe even worse due to the hanging inseam and tendency to ride up...

I guess it varies with the brand or style. I haven't had that problem with mine.
