The BEST Sports Bra

 

I am a runner, well like not a "good" runner but I run.  Running provides me with  "my happy place" that  provides me with energy to keep the rest of the balls in my life in the air.  It's a time that I have all to myself and have come to depend on for mental stability and happiness. 





 

 
 

 

When I was younger, pre-babies, I had D cups and hated them because I felt like I needed to double up on the sports bra when I was exercising.   I have been running for years and there is nothing I hate more then the feeling of things moving up and down let alone the idea of one of my breasts being able to slap me in the face while running.  (Did you get the visual?  hahaha)  One of my fears was that my breasts would grow significantly after having kids but they got smaller!!!!  I was overjoyed with the result and am now a B/C (bra dependent). The reality is that we can't really control what size we are and I am happy to tell you that I recently found an amazing bra at our local running store.  I told a friend of mine to give it  a try and she called me the very next day and said, "that bra is awesome!  Thank you so much." 

 

The Juno Sports Bra by Brooks.  Here are the spec from the website regarding this baby. 


This powerhouse of a racerback sports bra has it all. An interior unicup gives support, shape, and complete modesty, while an interior front yoke prevents vertical breast movement. Powermesh zones on the back keep you cool, while adjustable straps and back closure enable the best fit and total control. This Brooks sports bra offers the ultimate in support, shape, and customizable fit.
  • Interior unicup design gives support, shape, and complete modesty
  • Interior front yoke prevents vertical breast movement
  • Powermesh zones on back offers increased ventilation
  • Bonded front-adjustable straps with concealed hook-and-loop closure offer a custom fit on the move
  • Adjustable, soft-padded keyhole back closure for proper fit and support
  • Encapsulation/Compression
I have two in my closet and that's enough for me at one time.  I wash them in the gentle cycle, along with all my workout clothing, and hang to dry. 
 

What's your must have item for exercising?

    1. I totally get it. People don't realize that lots of things are impacted by it. It used to really make me upset when I was younger, 16-25, to go bra shopping. Some people are obviously better at it than others and have great outer confidence, but I wasn't one of them unfortunately.

  3. I've always counted myself lucky as a runner who has B cups...no need for really intense workout bras that can cost over $50! I'm a big fan of Champion sports bras myself. Is that a GapFit shirt I spy under your longsleeves? I love those GapFit breathe tees!
