Hydration Belt Question

[dragitoff]

My wife is wanting a hydration belt as she starts to run longer distances. She's looking for a belt that will hold her iPhone and one bottle. Any recommendations out there would be greatly appreciated! I use a 2 bottle Fuel Belt, but the pocket on it is just too small.

Thanks!

I have a four bottle fuel belt, and also bought a larger pouch for it to hold my iPhone. It works great with my blue tooth headphones and runKeeper.

One of these would work:

My favorite running belt is my double pouch iFitness belt. One pouch holds my iPhone and other flat items, the other pouch holds small, yet bulkier items (like my clif shot bloks).

And I have a single pouch, two-bottle hydration belt in my possession right now, but it is going into my kid's school's sports-themed raffle basket. iFitness was kind enough to send it to me as a donation! I'm going to try to win the basket myself so I can have it! And if I don't win it, I may go ahead and purchase one myself. I didn't want a hydration belt until they sent me this one and I really looked at it.

I also have that 2 bottle fuel belt and love it since it doesn't bounce. I agree the pocket is too small, but for around $10 you can order a larger pouch for her phone. I pulled off the smaller pouch and replaced it with the med size zipper pouch and my iPhone fits just fine.

I actually liked it so much and realized I needed to carry some more stuff on longer runs, so I got a 2nd med size one. I use that one for keys, meds, gu chomps, whatever I need for that run. I have used that set up for all of my longer runs and for 3 half marathons.

I have an iFitness racing belt with one pocket and two small water bottle add ons I have used. Unfortunately I've found for longer runs the belt tends to add to a tendency for runners tummy.

What really works for me is my sparkleskirts tech skirt -- black with the WISH feather -- I can tuck two small water bottles in the leg pouchs, along with papertowels, use the Otterbox holder on the waist for the iPhone, and tuck my lip balm and gus, etc. in the waist pocket. You can tuck things all around in that waist pocket -- it holds a lot!

Some running stores have a try before you buy policy. She might want to experiment.

I have this one. Holds my iphone and gels in the pouch. easy access. Some complain it bounces too much but I think the key is making it really tight and positioning it higher on your back (so mine clips under my bra rather than around my belly button)

Thanks for all the feedback. Since I've had great success with my Fuel Belt, I ordered her the same one I had, but ordered us both the large pouches to add to it. I've been wanting one for my Blackberry as well so that was perfect.
