    Have not had any issue until recently with having my bionic device clipped onto the top of my shorts for running, but was expecting to want to put something between me and the metal clip just as an extra precaution when it comes to marathons. It's possibly since it's got a bit warmer but I have now got some very slight friction from the clip happening now so was wondering if anyone knew of some kind of tape that I could stick on my hip to protect me? I'm thinking that just a regular plaster would not survive the sweat and any movement of shorts waist band, but something cheap that would stay stuck for the duration of a run is what I'm after.

    I've got a pouch that I wear and could put it in something like that, but I'm putting gels in it and there is only so many extra things I want to wear round the waist so trying to think as minimalist as possible.

    Is it just a small area? Compeed plaster?

    I used to use sports tape/strapping for the sports bra line.

    I like your thinking. It is just a small area, but I'm not sure I could be accurate enough with the likes of Compeed, a small adjustment and the clip will be back directly against the skin again.

    Is the tape you get a cheapo, non fluorescent coloured version of that Kinseo tape?
