Ok, fess up. How many of you have tucked everything from car keys to gels into your running bra to avoid having to wear that annoying fanny pouch?

Enter Gracie’s Gear, launched by lifetime runner and Certified Health and Fitness instructor Lauren Grace Updyke. The Gracie’s Gear line includes cleverly designed running bras, tanks, shorts, capris and hoodies with integrated pockets, non-chafe waistbands and technical fabrics that redefine performance gear for women runners.

The Gracie’s Gear signature piece is the Short Top ($33.00). Incredibly, this racer-back support bra top has three separate compartments and a cord feed for workout essentials. The compartments sit on the outside to avoid chafing and wide straps for extra comfort and support. You can carry your iPod, keys, cell phone – whatever…and stay “hands free.” Brilliant!

I LOVE the cute quarter-zip Hoodie ($65.00) made of “no-stink” fabric with the kangaroo pocket in the front, and the incredible Capris ($60.00) with slightly flared leg, extra wide waistband and back pocket are really cool and well-shaped.

Moderately priced, Gracie’s Gear can be purchased online at the company’s website (don’t worry – they have a no-hassle return policy), and at select retail locations nationwide.
