Gold bond anti chafing stick. Similar to body glide but 1/3 of the price. Found at grocery stores. It's all I use now
Monistat anti chafe gel
Added to my grocery list.
I use it for thighs and waist band when wearing my hydration belt. I prob swipe on more than needed as I chafed once in each area and that was all it took for me to panic of chafing. Lol I run 4-15 milers
Mostly I wear clothes that don't chafe. I don't mean that to sound like a smart ass, I mean I invest in 2-in-1 shorts from Athleta (the longer ones) instead of fighting with shorts that are cuter and/or I like otherwise but that chafe. Same goes for tri kits, tanks, and bras. I've been able to put together combinations for bike/run that rarely chafe. For the rare instances that I do, and/or for EXTRA humid/hot/wet runs I just use a little body glide with a battle-tested outfit.

Yep, all of this. I can't tell you the last time I chafed or had to use some sort of lube (aquaphor or generic ftw). Probably The Marine Corps Marathon last year
Even with good clothing I still chafe. I put the chamois butt'r on my girly bits. Yes, slather them and I also put it on the groin area and in my booty crack. Have you ever had ass crack chafing and then taken a hot shower? It's the worst. So I just make sure it doesn't happen again.
I could spend a zillion dollars on the best clothes out there & I still would not get through a FL summer without chaffing on my sports bra line.
This times 1000! Yes it is hot and swampy here!
Instead of lubricants though, I have been putting a six inch long piece of waterproof bandage tape under the front part of my sport bra band. It even stayed put through the Dubai Marathon. I swear by that now. I sweat so much that even anti-chaffing products sweat off.

Thighs and Arms - Body Glide Butt Crack - vasoline (I have a small container of it and that's all it's used for) Loose Skin on my stomach - Monkey Butt Powder (stupid name, but it's the ONLY thing that will work for me)
Seriously, it takes a good 5 minutes to lube up before going on a long run in the summer.

Ditto the girly bits. The first time I had chafing there, I didn't even realize it until I got in the shower and was suddenly in agony. And I didn't recognize it was chafing/what caused it until the second time it happened. Embarrassing.
Based on the location, I'm pretty sure I couldn't have avoided it with different clothes. Now I have to get personal with my body glide before longer runs, but maybe I will try the chamois stuff!

that's when I tried Destin because I had the worst butt crack chafing.

This is genius. I am picking this up for summer marathon training.

This kind. It is kind of stretchy, so it moves with you. I usually forget it is there.
