View Full Version : How do you carry water with you when you run?

As I get longer miles in when running, I need to carry water. I have a sports bottle that I carry with me, but it can be a pain, especially with all the sloshing.
Do I need to trade up to a Camelback Backpack (would serve me right for selling them at a yardsale this summer!), or is there something in between? Thanks!

I love my Camelback if I'm running more than 5 miles. I love water. :).
I used to just use a small disposable bottle. My route went through a university campus and I knew where the water fountains were to refill.
I have an Amphipod running belt that holds water bottles. I much prefer the Camelback. But, I also like the contour of the bottles it came with so I sometimes hand carry them.
There's a bottle I've seen at LL bean and TJ Maxx that is a little bottle with a neoprene sleeve that has a handle. That's next on my list.

I have one of these small handhelds: http://www.amazon.com/Nathan-Quick-Handheld-Hydration-Black/dp/B009KRNAOM/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1448300719&sr=8-2&keywords=running+water+bottle+nathan
I like that the neoprene sleeve just slips on your hand and you don't have to hold onto it. But it is small so I wouldn't use it for anything longer than 4-5mi.

I love my Simple Hydration water bottle. http://www.simplehydration.com/ I tucked it inside my waistband on the back.
For long runs, Fitletic hydration belt works great. http://www.amazon.com/Fitletic-Hydration-Black-Small-Medium/dp/B00A49SKUE/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1448310474&sr=8-1&keywords=fitletic Mine doesn't bounce at all.
