New Fast Pack

I ran to work this morning.

It was really warm at 6am. Feels like someone flipped on the warm weather switch.

Last night I bought a new fast-pack from REI. I loaded, ran, and then unloaded ten different packs before settling on the REI Transverse 30. I like the pack a lot, but this morning it seemed to lack breathablity. I could feel a lot of warmth against my lower back where the pack made the largest amount of contact.

My run to work was otherwise uneventful. I attached a picture of the HWY 59/San Jacinto River pedestrian bridge and my new Transverse backpack.
