I recently picked up the CamelBak 70oz. Hydration Pak in the blue/gray color and I have to say it is really a great product. I have only
heard about CamelBak water bottles before and have seen other people using
different products made by them. I was initially skeptical of their products
due to the seemingly big name brand and “cute” designs; I was worried they
might not be too functional in providing hydration for runners. I was wrong.
Let me give you some idea about the CamelBak company. They are based out of Petaluma, California and have been in business for quite a number of years. The mostly produce hydrations packs and water bottles, but what might not be widely known is that they also produce these products for the military and law enforcement. So as you can see they are a serious player in the hydration game.
The pak that I bought, the CamelBak 70oz. Hydration Pak, has a true no frills design. It is small and lightweight, but yet feels solidly built and durable. You can see that the stitching and reinforcement designs are all high quality. Just hold the bag and you can feel the quality of the construction. The bag also has a small pocket for simple items like keys, phone and maybe small food packs. The bungee cords along the front of the pack offer enough room for a small towel, light jacket and even some gloves, socks or hat. You could probably clip on some other items using a carabineer, but I like traveling light.
The CamelBak pack is also easy to use, simply grab the mouthpiece and place it in your mouth and you are taking a few sips in no time. It really is simple. Filling it up is easy as well and for added comfort you can simply turn the bag upside down to remove any air for the water pack. this will prevent the water from sloshing around the pack and unbalancing you as you run.
I can’t say enough about this CamelBak Hydration Pack. It really surprised me and I am very pleased with my purchase. It is great for providing hydration for runners and does so easily and comfortably. Seems like CamelBak water bottles and hydration packs are great products for making those tough runs easier.
