Recommend your water belt!

I'm gonna start running outside again soon and need a good water bottle belt. I think I want one that holds just one bottle in the front, similar to the one below. Does anyone have this one or another one to recommend? Do you think 22oz of water would be enough? Right now I'm training for a half marathon.TIA!

I need a good recommendation for one too I usually just hold a bottle with me but it's such a pain! At the 1/2 though there will be plenty of stations with water we can just grab!

I use the Nathan one with two smaller bottles in the back.

I find the one posted above too heavy. This belt is enough fluid for me up to about 13 miles as long as it's no warmer than 70 degrees. When running longer than 13 and it's warmer than 70 degrees I stop to refill.

Thanks, maybe this one distributes the weight better than the one with just one bottle.

I'm gonna use it just while training. I've heard they can be annoying during races, and you're right, there will be plenty of water stations! It will be here before you know it! Chat Icon

I have a fuel belt.

I only use it over 70 and more than 12-13 miles as well. I usually have to refill by mile 14-16 on hot days (using the four) on long runs - but don't usually finish the refill.

I hold a bottle anything over an hour (8-12 miles) in the summer.

Some people also place their water on their route before they run.
