I have a small chest. Twice in the last two weeks, I’ve found myself in the situation of running without a sports bra. And you know what? It’s hardly mattered. The first time, I picked up my running clothes in the dark and when I got to the gym…whoops! I had a pair of underwear instead of my bra. The second time was this morning, when I just didn’t care about wearing a sports bra under my three other layers of clothes to run in the snow (yep, still got the snow). Both times I did have on a tank top with a shelf bra…but just normal every day tank tops – not sports oriented.

So I wonder two things – one, do any of you see a reason to wear a sports bra if you really don’t feel more supported by it than a simple shelf bra in a tank top? two, what do you think when you see a girl running without a sports bra? Am I breaking some big running rule here?

Running today was good – even though it was in the snow. The way out was quite pleasant…then I turned around and was running both slightly uphill and into the snow and wind. It was tough! But felt really good for my first two-a-day (well, 5.5+ last night and 2.5 this morning) in preparation for the relays. First one (Running for Ed) is May 22. Wasatch Back Ragnar Relay is June 18 & 19.
