Edited to add: I just realized that I missed the 7 Hills Meeting yesterday! I have been looking forward to it for months now! UUGGHHH!
I love running in Huntsville! I feel so good once I am done, and the miles tick by much quicker, even running at a slower pace. I figured out how to properly wear the Camelbak, so I am keeping it and I believe it will serve me well.
I had the pleasure of running with Liz Berry today. In addition to the wonderful trails, I had great company! We knew that we would be running a very slow pace today as we both ran yesterday. We made it a point to walk at every mile marker which helped keep our pace where we wanted it.

I have used a camelback for a marathon before. It did not come off until about Mile 21 and boy was I happy.
I'm thinking about purchasing one myself. What's the trick?
I found that if I wear the pack higher than what I was, it works very well. I was wearing low on my waist/hips. It is made to be worn on the small of the back.
I have a bruised on my hip bone from wear I tried wearing it on Saturday.
I would MUCH rather carry my own fluid in a marathon than relying on water stations!
I get gastro-instestinal issues (porta potty stops and upset stomach) (I know, TMI (too much info)) if I go with GU...The best for me is Gatorade/water mix...
I like the Camelback (despite the disadvantage of carrying extra mass)because I'm not getting caught up in the water stops, not trying to drink from a cup, not STRESSING about "where's the next water stop".....for me, the Camelback's THE way to go! And if you're in-tune with how much water/gatorade you'll need, you don't have to fill it completely...It's comforting to know you've got YOUR fluid recipe with you at anytime, NOT nasty water-stop water...my 2 cents worth...
I'm glad you found my blog, and I look forward to keeping up with yours!
