I have just taken up distance-running and have been surprised to find it makes my nipples incredibly sore - so much so they sometimes bleed slightly. Why?
Have a doc check you over, but the odds are this is just the infamous "jogger's nipple" of which so many female athletes (and some male ones) have experience. Good ways to combat it are putting Vaseline on your nipples before a run and also putting plasters over them.
