I can’t believe how many people are running clutching water bottles. Some amazing trails. But bags not me having to find a trail through the snow along the side of a mountain. Neets´s last blog ..Confused and dazed
I have some water bottles like that and they are great for quick runs or longer ones with lots of feed stations. When the weather is more stable it would be eaiser to travel lighter too I guess….not like here where we carry 5KG of “what if” :D
Infact i prefer bottles these days on shorter adventures to the camelbak- as I can see exactly how much fluid i have left…..vs…guessing.
As for the running in snow…..don’t speak to soon!! It is a few weeks away from your birthday run and anything can happen *wiggles eye brows* :)
