When I started up running again since having Cash, I had been on the lookout for a good sports bra. I didn't have any super nice supportive ones while I was nursing Bradley and training for a half....partially because I was in denial that I would like running enough to make an "investment" in a sports bra. Probably my most embarrassing moment ever consisted of a complete stranger coming up to me and telling me I needed a more supportive sports bra after a run on an indoor track. I pretty much just stared at her, dumbstruck. "Um....I'm nursing." was all I could think to say. Long story short, I was mortified. I had just started training, taken in the sides of my bra to be more supportive a few days previous, and was doing the best I could with my recently developed double D's. That's not happening again. (I'm not even going to mention the fact that this lady was walking the track barefoot...gross)
This time around, I was ready for the real deal. I saw this post a while back, and mentally "pinned" it for when I was ready to start running again. I just got it this past weekend and I love it! It offers plenty support for the "ladies" and the front zipper is incredibly convenient when I need to breastfeed. This one is worth the investment.
I 2nd that suggestion! I've historically doubled up to help control the movement, but last year finally invested in one of the UA bras and it solved my problem! I'm not nursing and have the version that is one level down without the zipper, but now I can run with just one and feel completely supported. Totally worth the investment, especially if you're a runner that needs extra support.
ReplyDeletethat's SO funny because i had my eye on this one for a while, but never rationalized spending the money until i saw that post as well! SOLD! no regrets now- it's such a life saver (if there can be a bra life saver that is:)
ReplyDeleteI love mine! I don't need it for breastfeeding, but it is SO comfortable and the zipper is great!
ReplyDeleteI've been in denial about spending the money on a good sports bra. The time has come though. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteGood to know. My E's require 2 sports bras usually if I'm doing anything more than a gentle stroll. Mentally remembering for September!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the advice!! I'm breastfeeding baby boy #2 and also run, so I'm totally checking this sports bra out.
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy I've helped!! I knew i had to share the goodness. I still love this even though I'm not nursing anymore. Worth every penny! :) thanks for the shout out.

Thats an excellent advice, Im one month away from my due date and I cant wait to go running again after the baby is born, so I will definitely invest in a good one. On a side note, I cant believe how rude people can be sometimes, honestly!
ReplyDeleteLove your blog sweetie! The DIY skirt tutorial was absolutely stunning!
If you are into sports, or any activity that requires too much movement, sports bras are definitely a garment investment. One of the advantages of this undergarment is it reduces or minimizes the movement of the breast. Also, the strong support it provides maintains the breasts’ shape. [Ted Juhl]
