I knew a guy who ran with something like that. He called it a sweat
gutter and he swore by it. If you can't find it it seemed like an easy
thing to make. You just have to make sure the top opening doesn't
close up. His also had a series of square holes where the plastic went
up against his forehead. I guess it kept sweat from running down under
the thing. I remember he did have an unusual pattern on his forehead
after he took it off.
