Why do sports bras cost a small fortune?! and does anyone know of any good ones/ where to get it? the ones i have are fine of the elliptical and walking but i started running again recently.

    Champion has some nice ones that have underwire. My cups size has dropped a few, but they keep the "girls" in place and support! :) I found them at a Bali's Outlet store

    Unfortunately most good sports bras do cost a lot. However a well made one will last a long time. Here's a link to a good one that I absolutely love. I use it for running and it works great. It also comes in a ton of sizes.

    I have one that is for high impact and it zips in the front. It really keeps me together and keeps them from "waving" to everyone as we run by :) I'd look for one like that :)

    The Enell's are fantastic. Easy to measure for size, and I found mine online for about $50 each. Expensive, but really supportive and comfortable. They use them on the Biggest Loser...

    my problem is i wake up sore because they do too much moving when i run. I have champoion bras. & i usually double up with a tank top with a built in bra. its just really frustrating. it seems like theres always something keeping me from being motivated to get off my *kitten* these days. maybe buying a new bra will motivate me all over again. thanks everyone for the suggestions!

    I buy the high impact Champion ones to hold my Ds in place even when running. They're only about $16-20 each and I get them at Target. They also sell them at the Bali outlets and Shopko.

    Are you kidding? Any type of bra is expensive... anything worthy of wearing and holding up what it's purpose is for! I have a very very hard time finding something that fits me period. I'm a 38 DDDD or an E depending on brand. Good luck!

    Check out Title Nine Sports: http://www.titlenine.com/category/sports-bras-and-undies.do
    The more 'barbells' next to the bras the more support. :-)

    I found some at Target, I think the brand might be Champion, but they are tight enough to keep the girls in place but not so tight that you can't get in and out of it!!!

    Please please please, make sure you have a well supportive bra, I read that when you run, your breasts make a figure 8 motion, and if you aren't protected, you can damage the breast tissue... I bought the Enell... about $52 a piece, but oh so worth it....
