| The FlashFlo hydration system is perfect for cyclists or runners who prefer a waist-mounted system. Stable, lightweight, and comfortable, the FlashFlo provides water capacity equal to a double water bottle fanny pack, and there's enough storage for your CD or MP3 player and energy bar or gel. An external zip pocket holds keys and whatnot. For running, walking, hiking on and off trail, this system rules. |

Bottom Line: Fanny packs are so last decade. Get a FlashFlo. |
Reviews:
why are you running with water bottles?
I am so sick of water bottles bouncing around on my back when I am out on a run. My issue was solved when I got the Flash Flo. It fits snug around the waist and eliminates the annoying bounce. It also has room for a light trail jacket and a power bar. This is the hydration system I recommend for the trail runners out there.
Better than Day Trekker
If you look at the sizes of the Flashflo and the day trekker, you think that they are very similar in size. However, the Flashflo wears much smaller. It is still quite tall, so for a person with a short torso, it might be uncomfortable. However, compared to the Day Trekker it is much less intrusive. I think it is due to the padding on the waist belt, i.e. there isn't any. The Day Trekker is very padded, so I for hiking it would be very welcomed, but for running it is intrusive. I would highly recommend the Flashflo for running. The Day Trekker might be better for hiking where you aren't bouncing up and down as much, and you need more storage.
Cool water pack!
I've used this hydration pack for several long runs. It took me a little while to get used to running with it. The weight of the water is hard to 'wear'. It's designed really well with wide straps so the nothing digs into you. There are some great straps that easily tighten the pack around my waist. I need to tighten them as I go through the water to keep it comfortable, but it sure beats carrying water bottles. The extra space for storing keys and my MP3 player are a nice bonus. I think the pack works even better for biking where I'm not bouncing around as much. I definitely recommend it.

I ordered this item for use while doing long runs. It is excellent, and I am very pleased with the item. It was ordered and came in record time.
