Just a general thread about running. How's your running going? What are you training for? Did you get new shoes? Sporting an injury etc.

I very much prefer the front pocket vest to the backpack reservoir when running, it sloshes around a lot less. I also put about 1/8 tsp salt in each of the 500ml flasks for a little bit of electrolytes to prevent cramping on long runs.

You shouldn't have any sloshing if you suck all the air out. I'm mentioning this because to my surprise, a lot of people, even experienced runners do not realize that iscan option, and were used to running with their water sloshing around as they run. :)
