Having the right gear is so important for a good run. You don't want to be worried about something sliding around, being uncomfortable, not fitting correctly, etc. - You have better things to think about during your run!
Here are the clothes I wear for a run:
Spi Belt
A carrier case that fits around your waist with adjustable straps. The mesh pocket is stretchy and allows you to fit a ton of stuff: iPhone, keys, chapstick.
The belt is pretty comfortable, I strapped it around my waist and under my shirt. There wasn't alot of movement, which I was worried about. I still need to figure out the tight-ness of the belt, at certain points during my run it was a little uncomfortable. But overall I recommend it, I think it's important for us ladies to have a phone with us on runs, you never know!

Ever since I got in to running 3 years ago I have worn Brooks running shoes. The fit good and they are light weight. I highly recommend checking out your local Big Peach Running Company to find the right shoe.
Who would have thought Old Navy would have good Bras! I love these adjustable strap sports bras, they are comfortable and provide plenty of support.
Champion Capris
I wear these capris for everything - Spinning, Yoga, Walking, Running - they are so comfortable.

Champion Athletic Tank
This tank is a lightweight mesh material with more of a loose fit. I don't like built-in bras or super tight tanks so this is perfect for me!

I love this app - thanks Christina for telling me about it! The app tracks your route and gives you updates every mile. It scared me at first when all of the sudden my Spi-Belt was talking to me saying, "1 mile completed, 11 minutes 3 seconds".
I also wear a baseball hat on my runs. This keeps my hair out of my face and the sun out of my eyes.
What is some of your favorite running gear?
Happy Running!
