I have a Camelbak, very good for long distances as hold alot of water but the weight is spread evenly.. Ut also has zips etc so you can take sweets etc... here is a youtube clip of me wearing mine so you can see what its like...very comfy.

I got mine from Lidl when they had a special on. It's a little hip belt that has two bottles one either side of your hips and a nice little pouch in the middle. It only cost £6.99. You can get them other places but they are a bit more expensive.
Hi Ju. Lovely clip there shug!
RFC is it easy to fit the bottles back into the holder as you run? I imagined it not to be and it's putting me off. I hate holding a water bottle, even one with the space in the middle

Love Lidl! I have one of their cycling rucksacks for my hiking. Really compact but brill. I keep finding yet more pockets! LOL I have a bike now so go me!

I use the hydration belt and a donut shaped bottle. The donut shaped bottle I found new balance ones for £1 and great for short runs, any long runs I use the hydration belt.

I second the use of a water belt around the hips . Mine has 3 small bottles which sit nicely against my lower back - a small pouch in front to carry some money, credit card, keys. My phone goes into a soft spectacles case which clips to the belt at my side. Belt is by Adidas
