If you’re a runner, how do you carry your phone?

[circumventM]

Until recently, i have never run with my phone

however i have started an audiobook, and im desperate to continue it whilst on a run using my ear pods

I hate carrying anything when running so wondering what you do? i only have one item of running clothing with zip pocket for a phone, and it’s thermal. Given my local forecast tomorrow is 24… i’d rather not!

any recs that i can buy off amazon please!

Yes, carry my phone in my leggings leg pocket.

You obviously need one of these!
😆

I have an armband but gets a bit sweaty in this heat and don't love it. Off to investigate flip belts.

Harrier running belt

I wear a flipbelt.

I used to use an armband but didn’t find it very comfortable.

@circumventM what app do you listen to audiobooks on? I don’t regularly do audiobooks but did one a few weeks ago and same principal as podcasts/music in spotify.

it’s a podcast
does that mean i can?

I have a belt, but I also have some Nike leggings and Nike shorts which have excellent pockets!

smartwatch here too.

only take my phone on long (more than 1h) runs in an armband. I find the phone too heavy for leggings pockets and don't like the feelinv of belts either.

do you have an iphone?
the podcast app downloads to the watch.

I would massively overheat! Even one bra and a T-shirt or vest feels too much sometimes.
Will stick with one bra and a pocket if it serves no function other than phone carrier

Running belt or bum bag

I have a running belt, a flipbelt and a running rucksack with a bladder for long runs I can put phone in. Flipbelt I use the most. I have a couple of leggings/shorts I can fit my phone in the pocket but it bounces a bit and makes me uncomfortable so personally get on belted with a belt.

@circumventM yes, what app do you use to listen to podcasts. Example I use Spotify, have the Spotify icon on my Apple Watch and can go into the phone app and send it to my watch, screenshot attached.

You need a running belt

it is the apple podcast app

apple watch 5

im going to try @JoanDarc thank you!

I can't believe people put it in their bra. Firstly, ewww, and secondly, isn't that really uncomfortable?!

I use this. It's great

cheers for the suggestion!

Several of the Fabletics leggings have a pocket on the outside.

Flip belt is perfect

Sweaty betty power leggings or shorts with phone pocket

An armband is best, if I put it in my leggings it pulls them down, if I use a waist pouch it bounces up and down too much or rides up as my hips move.

Sweaty Betty Power leggings have a phone sized pocket in the leg. They also have another little pocket at the back for your keys and the fabric sucks you in nicely and is totally squat proof. They are worth the £££ IMO
