I’m gearing up for a long run in Golden Gate Park and need some advice on hydration options. I’m thinking about getting a running hydration pack or vest, but I’m not sure which would be the best fit for me. I want something that can hold enough water without being bulky or uncomfortable during my runs.
I’ve heard mixed reviews from friends who have their own favorites—some swear by vests with a snug fit, while others prefer packs that offer extra storage. I’d love to hear about your experiences. What brands do you trust for long-distance runs?
Do you think it’s worth investing in a higher-quality pack or vest, or have you found budget-friendly options that do the trick? What do you think?
