Nathan Sports Quick Squeeze Lite
Best lightweight handheld bottle for short distance road runners.
This handheld flask solves the mid-run hydration struggle by eliminating the need to actually grip your bottle. The ergonomic design and secure strap make it feel like an extension of your hand, though you do sacrifice the versatility of a standard water bottle for this dedicated, run-specific utility.
