Slow run today. It was so hot and so many bugs!

I was planning on joining the local canicross group for a run tonight, but I got the start time mixed up. We saw them coming off the trail just as we were starting.

The temperature was a lot higher than we've been running in up to this point, so our pace was slower than normal. Also, I think I inhaled what had to be a hundred bugs over the course of the run, there were huge clouds of them everywhere!

He got to take a couple dips in the river to help stay cool, but even starting at 8pm it was a toasty one today.

The dogs are loving their new 4runner!

Why did it take me so long to get one?

I only recently started trail running with my dog. Currently, I have been using my day pack I use for hiking and I absolutely hate it. The bouncing around is awful.

Searching through the plethora of posts here, it seems like the main consensus for a vest is the Solomon ADV.

I am a volunteer SAR K9 handler, and many companies offer a generous SAR discount. Solomon, unfortunately, is not one of them. If they are the best, then I'll go with Solomon, but I would love to save some money if I can.

I am hoping to hear from people who have either the Rab Veil 6/12, the Arc'Teryx Norvan 7, or the Black Diamond Distance 2/6 vest. What do you like about them? What do you wish they had?

I am looking to hold some soft water flasks for myself. Another bottle of water for my dog. My phone. Car keys. A very small first aid kit. And a full poop bag if nature calls, because it is not a fun time holding a bag of my dog's shit for km after km on the trails.
