Running with the Phone Solution

If I didn't have the smart watch I'd be all analog, no devices on my runs like I used to be. I'm not toting a damn phone around, I sweat enough just having to wear clothes.

The entire reason I got a smart watch was so I could track my runs/rides while leaving my phone at home/in the truck. This is my time, all calls and texts can wait.

I use a little Nike fanny pack thing. Holds phone and poop bags when I run with the dog. Doesn’t jiggle too much.

Time for you to get a Garmin 245 Music baw

The fanny pack is probably the most hetero thing I wear when I run. I’m a shorty shorts and no shirt guy.

Same. Not sure why I ever put a shirt on. Regardless of the conditions, I’m taking it off by mile 3.

Fair.

Same here during the warm months, but I live in OH and I am not running with no shirt and shorty shorts in January lol.

To answer your original question: I wear a vest.

I typically am training for some type of event, so I usually have at least one long run a week where I take a water bottle with me. I have a running vest that holds a camelback for those long runs, and it has pockets on the front for water bottles or gel packs. I use one of those pockets for my phone most of the time. I find myself using that vest for almost every outdoor run just to carry my phone.

I tell my wife which route I'm running and approximately how long it'll take. Plus I'm usually running somewhere pretty public so I can always ask someone to call for me if it's really an emergency.
