Where do I start

I thought I'd take this out on a "test run" this past weekend. Before using it on some trail running. I ran 18 miles and didn't even know I had it on my back. I only filled the water up half way. But carried extra pants, top, gloves and hat. Also, had cellphone, gel packets and some spare change. Perfect access to all this with the hip pockets on belt. I never was a big fan of hydration packs, prefering to opt for water bottles or water fountains, but now I'm sold. This will be with me on every weekend challenge/adventure. Also, thanks to the staff for guiding me through the decision process and opting for 2L bladder versus a 1L.
