15K tomorrow... and a hydration belt...

13 Replies

Evening all...

So - tomorrow is meant to be a 15K long run and I've got a new fancy Nathan Speed Belt 2 ready to roll... this is a snazzy new belt that holds two 300ml bottles and has room for some gels, house keys and a phone... All very exciting... :)

I figure if I'm going out for more than 90 minutes then water en-route is a must! Good thing it's cooler out there now though... :)

Happy running folks - I'll let you know how I get on!

Sounds like you are prepared for the big run. Good lunch, Aussie.

PS no picture of your new kit :)

Very best of luck for tomorrow Aussie, not that you need it, you've been putting in some brilliant running performances recently.

Good thinking with the new kit. I've ditched carrying a water bottle yet again but I think you're sensible to tackle it now, soon I'll be supping water from leaves as I pass, Bear Grylls style :D

Best of luck! It'll be interesting to find out what you think of the belt. I'm never sure whether to get something like that as I always bring water with me on a run.

Not what you're looking for?
