Running 500km in 5 days and zero chafing issues!

Path Projects customer Philip Vondra emailed us after completing the Vol State 500km race: 

''I wore the Sykes shorts and Tahoe 5'' base liner the whole time (5 days) and I had zero chafing issues. Super comfortable. The light color was perfect and I never felt overheated. The race was a total epic adventure. Running through the small towns and heat of Tennessee was really good fun. During the days it was well over 100f and humid! I have had big problems with chafing but Path Projects has solved those issues for me.''

''I had a great experience running Badwater, thanks to PATH Project gear.  The t-shirt, shorts and cap were great for the heat. I wore the t-shirt and shorts for the entire race.''

 

I also wore PATH Project shorts for my previous races too (Keys100 and Badwater Salton Sea 81 miles). Thanks again for your help!' - Siva Balu
