On a long distance run, you don’t want to be worried about how you are going to carry enough gels, your keys, ID, cash, inhaler and hydration. But you also want to be comfortable, because let’s face it, 42.2km to the marathon finish line is a long ways to go.

The light and comfortable running belts by iFitness have been specifically designed for long distance runners. There are a number of styles and sizes to choose from ranging from $24-$37USD – from a basic pouch all the way up to a full hydration belt that will hold all the running essentials you’ll need, but not too big that you’ll feel like an old mule loaded with supplies headed up to the Klondike.

The neoprene pouches are perfect for cell phones, ID and cash. Along the front there are four elastic slots, easily accessible, for holding gels, along with a small pocket to fit keys or an iPod Nano.

No longer will you have to pin your race bib to your shirt – the advanced models include two toggles to holder your race number below the pouch.

Additional hydration bottles can be purchased to add on to the side and back of the belts.
