No matter how organized I think I am about getting all my sports bras into one place, none of them are actually in that place when I go to look for them, minutes before heading to the gym or out on a run. It happened—again!—this weekend. The sports bra was nowhere to be found, and I'm not the kind of exerciser who's happy going without. So instead of skipping the run, I improvised.
