Nathan HPL #008 Race Vest description Marathon runner and Pittsburgh Marathon winner Magda Lewy wears the Nathan HPL #008 Race Vest while she trains for the Olympics. Hiding water bottles along your training route didn't work for Lewy (we know it wouldn't work for us"Now, which bush did we stash that bottle in?"), but given her focus on speed, she didn't want to wear anything heavy that could mess with her stride. Which is where this race vest comes in. The #008 weighs in at a mere 5.5 ounces and holds 1.5 liters of liquid for you. Plus, a front holster holds energy gel and a back pocket carries a jacket or gloves. |

This is a great race vest. I am not a big guy, so I was looking for something that could hold between 50 and 60 oz of water, but was relatively light. This pack does both. It is very easy to figure out how to best fit it to your body so that it stays stationary whether you are hiking or in a full out sprint.After the first few miles in it, I completely forgot the pack was there. The shoulder straps were comfortable and did not rub. The clip in front is non-obtrusive and is comfortable. Convenient front pockets as well. Go to any ultra-marathon and watch folks finish. It's no wonder why over 50% of the field are using Nathan packs. I am totally on board.
