I'm a larger sized runner. When I first started running out as a DD, I used to wear 3 conventional bras. Slowly as I lost 60lbs, I was able to wear only 2 as I lost and went to a D cup...but still need major support with the addition of sagging skin. I know, boo. I found the Moving Comfort Fiona bra and wow - that was the first time I could wear a single bra to run in! What a great feeling! I ran a half marathon with that bra but what that bra lacked was padding. I get cold easily and my nipples show very easily through my running shirts. I usually just shrug it off, but I found this Juno bra at my running store after I urged them to start carrying larger size bras with support for the larger runners out there.

This thing is kind of tough for me to put on because although it has 3 hooks in the back, it doesn't come all the way apart, the back of the bra is attached. I unhook all the hooks and undo the straps and pull it over my head. I then hook the tabs, then work on securing the straps.

Once it's on, I feel very supported and even a little lift which is nice. The chest of the bra is very structured with padding and coarse fabric. I'm wondering if this will soften up a bit as I wear it and wash it. But that's why it's so supportive, it's kind of coarse. The straps are coarse too, and the major reason why I didn't give this bra 5 stars is because of them. They go up a little higher than a typical bra - they lay along the soft muscular part between my neck and shoulder, like a halter top. It's a little uncomfortable because I'm not used to having any pressure there, but this is part of the reason why this bra has so much support. I just need to make sure I use Body Glide along the straps and edges of this bra, but I think we'll have many fun miles together.

On really hot days though, I'll probably stay with the Fiona bra.
