Back in my day we just called this “running”
“Streaking”, anyone?
Back in my day we had to run uphills both way, naked, in the snow!
Inexperienced here, but after a certain age, the flopping and bouncing around becomes problematic.
For all sexes.
So… running
Retronym.
A new name for something that has changed because of technology. Acoustic guitars and prop planes are examples. Silent movie, black and white movie, antenna televison, etc, etc.
That’s just how we did it before mp3 players
I remember portable cassette players and some mad people running with those.
Or those expensive CD players with supposedly anti “scratch/jump” features.
If manufacturers specifically marketed those for running, then they’re at fault, yeah. Otherwise, if you take the basic idea of how it works, you’d know it probably won’t cut it for running. Anti-skip works by basically reading ahead (faster than playback) and caching a few seconds of playback (in a place that’s not the disc so it’s not affected by vibrations) so that when a sudden shock happens every once in a while, playback will continue from the cache and the normal disc reading will have time to catch up; if however every step you do while running is potentially a shock big enough to disrupt the reading of the disc, the caching just won’t have time to catch up.
P.S. Sorry if that sounded a bit rant-y.
yeah i’m not running with a belt on and a walkman would not be great for keeping my pants up.
I do this all the time. I mean unless you consider the phone in my pocket not doing anything and the casio gshock square on my wrist tech
They say it’s not what you know, it’s how soon you know it.
And how many groups of joggers you run up to join before you know it.
I mean obviously it means those things. Where would you keep them while naked?
Up youtlr ass n obviously. But I like listening to a lot of power metal when I run so I just end up cumming when I step outside.
I always keep music in my ass. Not technology, just the music.
A real prison wallet
That’s where I keep my binoculars!
They do a naked run every semester at Berkeley the week before finals. Its called dead week, where there’s no classes, and its a time for students to cram for their exams, or, you know, run naked around campus.
Where do people keep their keys?
They still wear shoes, right?
We never understood why one of the local convenience stores advertised this little arm bands that had a pouch built in roughly the size of a wallet. Then we learned the local uni had a big naked run enthusiast community and they regularly invited us you guys from the military base every year they did it.
Mostly people went barefoot but some had on slip ons. Vast majority of people had those arm bands though with an mp3 player or their phone shoved into the pouch, some girls wore sports bras, and some others had what I can only describe as a phanny pack across their middle. My group all wore the arm bands and camelbaks. Good times, would probably kill me to try that again.
I played naked frisbee on the front lawn of my college once. I thought it would be effortless but in fact it’s extremely painful to have your nuts bouncing around unsupported like that. But I kept at it until the Dean of Students came up to me and asked me to put my clothes back on because it was prospective weekend and there were a bunch of high school students with their parents standing off to one side. I thought I was accurately representing what the college was all about but he thought otherwise.
I felt bad years later when I found out the Dean’s brother had been murdered in Mississippi during the civil rights era (they even made a Hollywood movie about this incident). He must have felt great knowing his brother had been killed fighting for black people, and he was busy making stupid white boys put their pants back on.

I had a similar discovery about kickboxing practice and boxers. It’s not fun when you’re holding a thigh pad for your partner to practice kicking, and you realize that your legs can transmit energy, much like a newton’s cradle.
I thought you were going to say something about naked kickboxing and I was preparing my hardiest “duh”.
We make sacrifices so other people don’t have to. I’m sure his brother would not have minded that he has a high paying job and that he can tell stupid white boys to stop making fools of themselves.
You mean like the 90s? Without a walkman/CDman?
Running in the Nineties?
Im old enough to remember when “naked running” meant Streaking. There was even a hit song about it back in the 70s.
Boogidee boogidee
I had a similar problem with a cafe bar doing a “Bottomless Brunch”.
Anyway, it turns out it’s some weird, trendy new phrase for “all-you-can-eat” or “buffet”.
It is not in any way along the same lines as a “Topless Beach”.
I thought bottemless brunch was a socially acceptable way to get shitfaced before noon on free drinks.
Where did he expect to keep the tech devices while naked?
I’ve never run with music. It appears to me, to be a pretty dangerous activity in an urban environment. I’ve had a few near misses ‘naked’. Music while running has never really interested me anyway. I’m 55 so maybe that’s why…
I wear a set of bone conduction headphones and listen to audiobooks. I can hear the reading, but can also hear the biker whizzing up behind me without announcing himself. They’re fantastic.
In some states you could be stalked by a cougar so you want your ears wide open.
I live in Jersey and have a trail I run along the river, and despite the fact I just know there’s nothing stalking me, this one section goes through some thick bamboo, and I always just imagine something is there.
In WA state, young inexperienced cougars attack bikers and runners.
Isn’t it just at or around bars with cheap beer and indoor smoking that cougar attacks spike?
Music really helps with interval running ( If that’s the correct word, I have English as second language), just load up a playlist with fitting tempos and then just follow the rhythm.
I prefer to hear the sounds of nature though, but not all live as rural as I
