I have it bookmarked, I may try one of each and see how it is. It's not like I'm THAT big, but the plain 'ol sports bras just don't cut it.
Thanks again for researching that for me, it is much appreciated. 
I really wish a few women who have worn the bra could add their two cents. Nothing like hearing from experience cheers!Diane | No problem.
Reminds me of a joke one of the women I used to run with ( in my running club ) told me.
She said she had a tattoo of a ' rosebud ' on her breast. And, that she wore the best sports bra she could find, so that 20+ years from now, she wouldn't have a tattoo of a ' long stemmed rose ' on her breast instead ! 
As for getting some feedback from women who have worn the bra, I suppose you could sign up on a running forum or two and search this topic and or post a thread there.

LMAO! Guess I should be glad mine is around my ankle....
Again, thanks for the suggestion. I went to a few places, and it seems it really is a toss up between the two different bras. I think I am going to get both and see how they work for myself.
Your help has been greatly appreciated!
Cheers,

I also looked at one in Runners world (I believe) and that's where I originally read that they felt the Enell was a bit much. I was just concerned about the eye hook front, but it seems no one mentions that, they only mention that it was ugly....lol
The reviews have been very helpful. Thanks for the suggestion
Cheers!

Diane | What do they mean by that exactly term " too much " ?
That a bra with too much support is somehow going to have an adverse impact on your ability to run comfortably ?
Or are they just talking about the relative cost of the bra ....for the benefits you get from it ? |

She said running distance in it was hard. The only other comment was that it was ugly...lol.....
Most women are fine with the cost if the bra is truly a good bra.... |

this sucks.....but thanks for thinking of me | | |
