For today's run, I went out with my regular rucksack and a Platypus bladder.  This was all state-of-the-art in 2002 when I bought it for hiking and biking, but the bag (loaded with a dummy load of fleece et al) was pretty bouncy on the run and worse than that, the platty bladder was crinkly like unto a heavy crisp bag.  A very chatty load.

So, dear flist, what running hydration backpacks do you like?  Is the current generation of Camelbak bladder quieter - would swapping the bladder alone be a smart fix?  Are there running backpacks that really do stay put like unto a blasphemous monkey/limpet hybrid?

The kit list is small: Waterproof, torch, space blanket, mobile, nav. Add gloves, buff, etc for temperature management and a small FAK just in case (compeed!).

I'll check out those other brands. OMM look very secksy; Inov8's low horizontal bladder is cunning too - phwoar! May have to hit up a Snow + Rock for testage...
