    Yes, I know you shouldn't.

    But.

    Any recommendations on a bag for 12-13 inch solid-state laptop to put in while running?

    Looking at some OMM options (https://www.theomm.com/products/packs/), but Osprey seem to cut it (http://theruncommuter.com/).

    Probably inspired by all the running I do in London where running as commuting is huge.

    Obviously, it needs to be waterproof and secure.

    Recommendations on gear?

    Anyone done this running to/from work in Ireland (with laptop), by the way?

    Hey, they can put up with the smell (no showers), but not a broken laptop!

    I run commute 9-10 miles at least once a week. It's a handy way of getting runs in, and I'll probably up the frequency to twice a week next year.

    I used to do it with an auld Jansport bag, now I use this: http://ultimate-performance.co.uk/sports-accessories/packs-pockets/peak-day-pack-up6550

    It's nowhere near as expensive and fancy as the ones you linked to, but it does have straps, a laptop holder, decent padding and has plenty of space for additional gear.

    I picked mine up in RunZone, Run Logic also appear to have them.
