Gear review: Brooks Women’s Dare Racerback Sports Bra

After years of running in squash-everything style sports bras, I finally got one with proper sizing - the Brooks Women’s Dare Racerback Sports Bra. Wriggling into this thing was a struggle! Comparing the back view of the 2.0 version, I think they heard that and made some changes.

Nevertheless, I have to say this bra is amazing! Nothing moves! I never realized how much bounce and shift I was putting up with before. S/M/L sizing just doesn't work for me. It’s kind of ridiculous when you're looking at a size chart for a bra that's totally non-adjustable, and they pretend that the same size will be fine for both a 30D and a 40A... no it won’t! So glad to have found something that has proper sizing, is adjustable, and holds everything where it belongs.

Chugging along

Managed to get back on track, sort of. We’ve had some major snowstorms here, which have made even walking outside difficult! But I managed to hit the half-way mark on my fundraising page, so that is something! 

In other news, I’m still tapping, and managed to conquer the dreaded Parks & Rec registration to sign up for tennis lessons, which start in April. Very much looking forward to getting different types of movement happening. It’s easy to just do the same old same old, but when I do do something different, I always notice how different it feels—because it generally means using muscles I never use normally (which means I need to use them more!).

Also, this is vain but my tennis skirt (which I bought to have something to wear to tap) is just so freaking cute, and I feel cute when I wear it. Gotta get my enjoyment out of life where I can!
