CamelBak Octane XC Hydration Pack - 2L
Good not Great for road running
By mikeyg83
Ranked #1188 - Trail Running Hydration
January 4, 2009
I got this with the intentions of road running. The main draw was the capacity, which will allow me to run up to 20 miles without refilling. The 2 biggest drawbacks are:
1) pretty loud sloshing noise while running, but you get used to it;
2) when filled to capacity, the bladder doesn't sit flush against my back.
Otherwise this is a good option for holding my phone, gels, and keys when I run.
