Rucksack ordered

Second to decent socks is the need for a rucksack that is practical for long distance running and therefore is lightweight and compact.

After some research, I have gone with the Salomon Trail 20 rucksack that holds 16L and importantly is not a hydration pack.  It is not water proof but as one of the many positive comments said, you can line it with a plastic bag.  It is lightweight and so when it arrives, I will have plenty of time to work out what to pack to ensure I then do not overload it with nice to haves.

Tomorrow will be a 10 mile easy run as I taper for a week - it will be the longest run under the max aerobic heart rate limit approach before the Marathon a week on Sunday.
