Running belts that will hold your phone, water bottle, and more

You can run if you want to, you can leave it all behind — but you don’t have to.

One of the most vexing questions for runners is where to put all their stuff. What if they need to stop for a coffee? They need money. For long runs, they’ll need sustenance like a granola bar or gel packs. And what about the constant need to carry a phone, whether for race selfies or emergency calls? You can only fit so much in the pockets of skin-tight running clothes. And so the running belt was invented.

Please don’t call it a fanny pack. The best running belts fit snugly around your waist, hold all your essentials, and are comfortable enough for you to forget they’re there. Peruse these 10 options that fulfill all those requirements and more.
