REVIEW: Simply Hydration Bottle

This weekend I tried out the Simple Hydration Bottle. It as advertised as:

  • 13 ounces is the perfect amount of liquid for most training runs or as a race bottle.
  • Wide mouth opening makes it easy to fill and clean.
  • The hook allows the bottle to rest on a waistband, race belt or sports bra.
  • Contoured design fits nicely to the shape of the body.
  • BPA-Free bottle made of LDPE and made in the USA.
  •  
     
Ran 8 miles with the bottle hooked on to my flip-belt. First four miles it was in my back. Initial, I didn't feel it but after the second mile I felt that it was weighing down the back of my shorts. I felt like I might be showing butt crack, LOL.  

The next for miles I moved  it to the front and it side to the left of my hip. This was a much better fit and i didn't not feel the weight (at this time there was a bit less water). It was nice to have something  to drink without having to carry something in my hand or wearing a hydration pack. 

Thumbs up: stayed in place in my flip-belt and I did not feel the weight once I found a good position for it. It did not leak and it was easy to get too.

Thumbs down: you need to find the right place for it and make sure you are wearing something supportive to keep it in place.

In the Nerd Running Bag: YES
