Hi!
I’ve tried a few running belts for long distances, and here’s what worked for me. Look for belts with wide, elastic, and adjustable straps. They really help reduce bouncing and chafing. Pockets that stretch are great for phones and gels, as they hold items snugly without adding bulk.
One belt I’ve found really comfortable and reliable is the STRYQ Running Belt. It stays snug even during longer runs and has enough storage for essentials without feeling bulky.
For hydration, it depends on your run length. If you’re doing 5 to 10 miles, a belt that can fit a small soft water bottle is usually enough. For longer runs, a separate lightweight hydration pack might be more comfortable.
Brands I’ve had good experiences with are FlipBelt, Nathan, and SPIbelt. They’re durable, minimal, and stay in place.
