So I started my training for the Cleveland Half Marathon. I try to do it every year and love the fact that I run it with my very dear friend Nancy K. With every near training season, I usually start by going over my running "inventory." That includes shoes, socks, bras, pants, shorts, shirts, running coats, etc. I quickly noticed that my bra selection is "neglected" at best.
I read that your running bra should never have a birthday...I'm in total agreement on that. I also know that your bra needs to fit correctly, support your ta-tas, and be soft/comfy. Cotton is out and moisture wicking fabric is in. I hand wash mine and let them air dry.
That being said, here's my 2 cents on bras:

I really like Gracie's Gear! Her facebook page can be found at: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Gracies-Gear/508556439209091
Athleta always has some nice clothing options. Make sure you sign up for their emails and look for sales and coupons.
