My Pannus and Me: How can I tame that beast while running?

Hi Everybody! I have been training for my first 5K and I am trying to work all of the bugs out! When I first began running, I was having problems finding the right sports bra to bind my boobies so they would stop flopping and pulling and hurting. I found that wearing two sports bras (one that is really snug and the other for extra support) along with a tight active wear top works well, but now I am noticing my other problem: My Pannus.

It's not huge, but it is enough to bounce around and make my shorts pull down and push my shirt up while running. I thought about wearing Spanx while running to try to combat this and was wondering if anybody has experience with wearing them or any other solutions that you have come up with. I just want to be as comfortable and non-floppy as possible while running!

Thanks in advance for your help!!!

I was going to suggest bike bibs. The shoulder straps help with the moobs, the bib controls belly flopping, and the butt pad helps with chaffing in the nether region.

The tri singlet idea seems like a great suggestion.
