CamelBak Octane XC Hydration Pack - 2L
So far so good

So far so good. I can live with the sloshing, your carrying 72 ounces of water, what do you expect? The pack is easily adjusted on the fly as you use up water and want to tighten it. The quick adjustments are also nice being that I like it a bit looser on the climbs and tighter on the descents. As far as this being for only "slower" runners, I'm 16-17 5k'r and it works very well with my training pace but I only use it for my long slower 2-4 hour runs. Who runs 5:30-45 miles with any kind of pack?
