Choose the right RUNNING PACK OR WAISTBELT with expert advice from myRaceKit running stores

There are so many trail running packs, vests and waistbelts to choose from, how do you decide which is the best for you? I went to myRaceKit store in Sheffield to meet up with staff member Steve Franklin who shares all the advice you need to choose the perfect one. (socially distanced filming)
Visit myRaceKit stores in Sheffield and Essex for friendly, professional running advice at every level, or browse and shop online www.myracekit.com/
This film is powered by myRaceKit - many thanks to them for asking me to create this series of 6 films for them about how to choose various key items of trail and ultra running kit. We cover trail running shoes, running packs & waist belts, nutrition, waterproof jackets & trousers, headtorches / headlamps, and road shoes. I hope you will find these useful and informative. Watch out for the next in the series, coming soon to Wild Ginger Running KZbin channel.

myRaceKit is a great shop, Put a nice little note in my Hoka mafate evo shoe order

I've gone almost totally Ultimate Direction. In practical use, it has shown to work better than my Salomon gear. Biggest problem is getting it ! Not living in US, its often difficult getting specific products. As prof as they are with the equipment, as amateurish they tend to be when selling to no-US athletes. When writing to them about something or rewieving a product, they never reach back ! Total silence ! But the best gear for me...

When running with my pack and bladder I have the problem on longer runs that I run out of water in my bladder what is the best way to top up water supplies on the go and be safe on the go without stopping at a shop when in the wilderness such as peak district or lake district ?

I got a Sawyer mini water filter for this exact scenario. I often go out in the peaks now with just 500ml of water and the filter to top up from streams. Having said that sometimes you just don't come across a stream when you need it...
