It's good to have for safety reasons (esp. as a woman). You could get injured, attacked by an animal or a person, or need to make an emergency poop and get picked up. You also might want to place a coffee order so it's ready when you get there.

Running belt for sure. I've used armbands but they always slide down on me. You can wear the running belt under your clothes if you feel self-conscious about the way it looks.

Just don’t take phone. Do you really need it on a run?

Arm band

This is what I do. Tried belts and pockets but they are too bouncy unless you really cinch them down

I use a running belt from Amazon. I don’t even run but use while walking the dog. Phone is secure and I can position where most comfortable. They are under $10.

I have the lulu dupe shorts from amazon that hold my phone. It bounces a little but I prefer that over the arm band or something around my waist (just don't like the feeling of having something extra around my waist). I had the lulu ones but the zipper broke bc the pocket just wasn't big enough. so far the amazon ones have held up better. once it cools down I like the leggings with the side pocket.

I either use an arm band or a water bottle with a pocket for my phone. I don't run in leggings unless it's winter. Nike tempo shorts are the best ones I've found for running - dicks sporting goods has them in about 20 colors.

I’ve used a running belt for years. Pockets in most women’s running shorts aren’t big enough (or would be too floppy even if they were). I have an arm band too but prefer the belt as it’s easier to access my phone in case I want to change what I’m listening to or check work emails quickly.

Doesn't the phone get sweaty running outdoors in this heat?

Get an arm band with a pocket - ton of options on Amazon

This! The one from Brooks is great.

When I go running I just hold my phone. I wouldn’t want to put it in a pocket bc the dear it would fall out.

I tried running on the treadmill today in looser shorts-think Speed Up from Lululemon. I liked it, but what if I want to run outside….do I bring my phone? I feel like my phone would weigh them down and that would be super uncomfortable. But most pictures I see from athleta and lulu have a pocket for them.

Also, do they ride up your butt? Do you wear underwear or just rely on the built in underwear?

Any shorts recommended? I wear compressions outside but they are long and it’s hot.
