I typically run around the neighborhood, so I'm usually only 10 minutes away from home at any time. I went on a trail run today, 20 minute drive to the middle of nowhere. I brought my phone and stuck it in a ziploc bag and put it in my shorts pocket, which is in the back center. Thwap, thwap, thwap with every step. It got a bit annoying, so the phone will be staying in the car next time. Still, part of me says that I should bring it, and I was actually able to get 1-2 bars during the run.
Now, I saw this watch phone, which looks pretty slick. I can just pop my sim card in when running. I might give it a try, and it's no bulkier than my Garmin.
Does anyone else bring their phone? Do you use a waist pack or arm band?
Edit: The watch phone didn't work out. I'm sending it back to Amazon.
