I have the Nathan HPL 020 Race Vest that I use for long ultramarathons and mid-length unsupported runs. It rides MUCH better than any of my other smallish packs (I also have 5 GoLite packs, 2 Camelbacks, and one Gregory pack in the "small hydration pack category"). Actually, for fit and ride, there is absolutely no comparison between it and my other packs. It's great for running because it doesn't bounce, the straps are very wide and secure, and there are front pockets for gels and stuff (so you can eat w/o taking it off). - Chris
I can't answer for Chris, but many trail and ultra runners tend to have an assortment of packs (back, waist), bottles, etc as they've tried various packs and looking for one that works for them and/or have packs for different durations (3 hr vs 13 hr) or purposes (running, trail building, summer / winter, whatever). )

...It doesn't help that GoLite is located just a few miles away and they have a huge warehouse sale twice a year. GoLite is very very good at making my wallet lighter... I just can't say "no" to the insane deals.
