Don’t Forget Your Support on the Course

With less than a month until race day, It’s time to get your gear lined up! And for you ladies, that means making sure you have the right sports bra to wear. Running is a high impact sport, and just like a suitable pair of running shoes, a great-fitting and comfortable bra is key to an enjoyable race (and training experience).

When buying, look for maximum support. Your sports bra should keep motion to a minimum. A typical bra is neither sensible nor comfortable for long runs. Also, search for the right fabrics. Look for sports bras with moisture-wicking fabrics to cool your body and that stretches for comfort and proper fit.

To determine which type of bra will work best for you as you gear up for The Middle Half, come see me (Krista) at Fleet Feet Sports in Murfreesboro.
