Belt Running Belts

Go the Distance With a Running Belt Obtained on eBay

If you plan on heading out for a run, or even a long walk or hike, it can be nice to carry your valuables and a few snacks with you. These belts are convenient accessories that won't get in your way as you take part in your sport. You can find a large selection of new and used running belts on eBay.

These affordable running accessories are often made out of a performance fabric so they can stretch, dry quickly, and feel light against your body. If you're sometimes out in the elements, consider getting a waterproof one so your keys and phone can stay dry even in a downpour. This would also help if you get sweaty and are concerned about the moisture. In addition, you might want to look for:

• Zippered pockets: Having a zippered enclosure can give you more security in regard to your belongings.
• Multiple compartments: It can be handy to have more than one storage pouch so you can keep certain items separate from others.
• Stretchy pockets: If you plan on bringing a lot of gear with you, consider getting something with a stretchy compartment so it can expand to hold a variety of things.
• Adjustable around your waist: Some belts come with adjustable straps, whereas others are only a certain size. Having the adjustable straps may be ideal if you run in both lightweight and bulky clothes. One of these belts can also be shared by people of different sizes.

As you work on your fitness, it's important to stay hydrated. If you want to keep a water bottle with you on your training runs or during races, you'll want to look for a running belt, such as the URPOWER one, that can hold bottles. Some of the belts may even come with small bottles that will perfectly fit the pouch. Six and eight ounces are common sizes of these bottles. See the manufacturer site for details.

Many companies are in this market. Some brands that make these accessories are:

• SPIbelt: This company makes high-performance running belts with adjustable straps and zippered compartments.
• Nathan: One of Nathan's offerings is a relatively cheap belt that's light and reflective.
• FlipBelt: FlipBelt makes its products out of a continuous loop of material that feels smooth against your skin. Its belts are made out of micro-poly and Lycra, making them breathable and easy to throw into a washing machine.
