BTW Sandy, I'm on my second pair of Asics running shoes..........LOVE THESE SHOES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AHHHHHHHH!!!! They are so light, airy and supportive...Got off track here a bit (no pun intended)!! LOL!!!
I will take Trigirl's advice and just shop around. I have a couple that are Reebok (I think) and they are just OK. I want something that is really supportive but light and cool at the same time. I'm on a quest!! LOL!!!!!!
I'm not particular in this area. Currently I am wearing tops with built in bras--- Asics, I think. They are at least 4 years old and have held up really well. Pretty sure I bought them at TJ MAXX.
I have a lot of different brands, all pretty inexpensive, and I've liked nearly all of them at one time. I really like the new lightweight sports bras I got from the Jockey Outlet, but they wouldn't be enough support for running or something high impact like that.
I also have a couple of Starter sports bras that I love but I never see them anymore (I got them in a 3-pak from BJ's Wholesale Club years ago). I have an Everlast that was one of my very first sports bras years ago.
I ditto Jen about just going and trying on a bunch to see what fits and feels good on you.

It's hard to find just the right one. I'd recommend going to a large department store and trying on a bunch. Marshall Field's and Dillard's are the stores near us with the best selection. I just got an Axcelerate (by Speedo) one that I like, and Champion has a lot of good ones. For me it's always an issue to find one with enough support that doesn't chafe. Good luck!
