Natalie Halapin's review
Long bras have saved my back from vest chafing and feel less restricting around my rib cage than other styles of sports bra. This one has a small mesh pocket in the front inside and a cellphone pocket in the back that I stuff with ice in the summer. I'm a 34A and like a slightly less compressive fit.

4 experts recommend the Janji Women's Groundwork Long Bra.
This bra is so cute because it doubles as a crop top for hot days. I’ve never chafed while wearing it, even for 40 miles. I’ve worn it for races which looks like a professional kit. The phone pocket is very nice too!

I don't think I fully appreciated how much a good sports bra affects the entire running experience postpartum until I wore a bad one. Your body changes so much after pregnancy and birth, even if you aren’t breastfeeding anymore and the wrong (or lack of any) support can make running feel way harder than it should. This bra helped reduce tension in my shoulders and upper back and honestly just made me feel more comfortable moving again.
