Backpack to wear while running?
This spring I want to take more/better advantage of having multiple grocery stores within easy walking distance, but I also want to multi-task and be able to pick up a few things on my way home from a run.
In the past, I've ended my run at the store and walked the half-mile home, or strategically tucked loaves of bread under my arms to maintain a somewhat-normal stride. I'd love to carry more, though, and not have to walk home doing it.
Does anyone have a good recommendation of a slim-fitting, non-bulky backpack that might work? I was considering a Camelback-type thing minus the water bladder if they made something like that. Bonus points if I can get it on Amazon--which is where I'm looking now.

I've done that for trips to the half-mile-away store, but it would be awkward for a longer (4-6mi) run.

This is my backpack for school and I love it (mine is bright blue). It has both a hip and chest strap and is very comfortable. I've worn it on a few long hikes and the plastic on the strap (the adjuster thingy) rubbed on my arm. Otherwise this would be great!
I have a camel-back type backpack that is slightly bigger than just the back pack with water. I got it at Target. Its nice for running and hiking, as well as when I have my dogs an need to stick a water bottle for them in it as well. I just tighten the waist strap when I run and it does quite well. I can't seem to find it on their website though, I got it about a year ago.
ETA: I found the one I have one Amazon. It looks small, but it can hold a good amount if your just doing a small trip and getting a few things.
