#running backpack

Hi there folks!

So marathon training round two starts in about a month and I’m very excited and prepping for everything. I was wondering--for people who run with backpacks, do you find them useful and do you have any brands or models you’d recommend?

We have enjoyed great interest and discussion since we began this endeavor, but we truly knew we were going somewhere when we got our first public criticism. Rather, I should say our first public concern: hygiene; more specifically, co-workers’ exposure to our assuredly horrendous hygiene.   One Reddit reader voiced it thus:

Here are five things we think every run commuter should have if you run to and from work on a regular basis.  These items will keep your gear dry, allow you to transport things back and forth, help you clean up, dry off and prepare you for your day at the office.
