Topless running for a woman with smallish breasts is quite enjoyable. Topless running with a woman with LARGE breasts is borderline grotesque... no matter how enjoyable the thought may seem to my mind.
What'r you, gay???!!!!!!
NFS4 is right. I'd imagine its not very comfortable.

And that is with support from a shirt (and possibly a bra). If she was completely topless, those things would be flying in all directions.

Frankly, I've always kinda found smaller, naturally round breasts far more attractive. Big boobs look nice all tucked away in a bra or swimsuit, but I want them to look nice with no support, not some flapjack I have to scrape off the floor. Guess I never totally got the "infatuation" with huge boobs... must just be me:)

I'm a fan of jogging shirtless. When it's humid I have a shirt that sticks to me and a farmers tan. =/

Doesn't really bother me. Anyone who has ever been on a long run when it's ridiculously humid outside will understand.

I usually wear a beater when i run, but if it gets really hot then i'll take it off...i'm pretty comfortable w/ my upper body though, got a nice 6-pack but i'm trying to get rid of some really bad cystic acne.

Sounds like it would be painful and uncomfortable for the woman with said LARGE breasts...

But come on, you've got to post video...

Not bad when she's holding them. But without support, imagine huge bags of distorted fat moving and contorting up and down out of sync :)

Run every day, sweat in a new shirt every freaking day, do 7 extra shirts in the laundry a week and then tell me why they run with a shirt off.

Who gives a shit? The more people running the better. I don't care what they wear or what they don't wear. If they stick to it we'll have less fat people and that's the bottom line.

Do you honestly cringe when you see someone running with their shirt off? Do you take that much time out of your day to think about how uncomfortable someone with their shirt off running made you feel?

women with large breasteses very rarely are runners for that reason.

I've played soccer games in 90+ degree weather, 90% + humidity, in a nylon uniform. Drank a lot of water, but I was never tempted to take my shirt off.

Also, this is just me, but if I tried that, I'd have to put on insane layers of sunscreen to avoid skin cancer. I'd much rather suck it in and wear a shirt.

My wife is a D cup and has to wear two sports bras when she runs.

What's bizarre about wanting to stay cool(er) and maybe get a tan in the process?

If I jogged I would do it shirtless.

Scoff all you want, but short shorts and no short are very comfortable (as long you have everything in check) and you get a good tan along the way.

Another bonus of dropping the shirt is on really long runs (like 10+ miles) a sweaty shirt turns into sandpaper and turn your nipples into bloody hamburger.

Plus you have a giant sweat sock just clinging to you for the whole time. It's just easier not to have a shirt.

ayup.

my friend on our softball team had reduction surgery. she got tired of them being in the way and her back was already giving her issues because of the top heaviness. you could see they were hampering her when she ran.

watching the track team while stuck in traffic is one of the things I miss about living in a college town :(

It's a thread where the focus has turned mostly to bouncing boobs. What were you expecting? ;)

Holy mother of God! Insanely gorgeous. :)

Running without a shirt is great because you don't have to put on vaseline or any kind of nipple guards when you do long distances!
