Hello, kind of running related as I’m looking for something to use for races!

I have a whole variety of bags and rucksacks but am in the market for 70-100L holdall type bag on wheels which is waterproof.

The purpose it to take my stuff for long ultras and to be able to leave it trackside which may not be undercover.

I bought a waterproof holdall a while back which is really good but it’s not on wheels and I nearly broke myself carrying it on public transport to a 12 hour race. It has straps to wear as a rucksack but I had so much in it that it was hard to get on my back and was not easy to carry. I have a big bag on wheels but it’s not waterproof.

I did wonder if I could get some wheels for the one I already have?!

I’ve found a few possibles online but wondering if I have missed anything

Sack trolley for your existing bag?

Sorry, hopefully someone else has more helpful advice :)

I’ve had a look at trolleys but I’m not sure how well that would work on public transport? I’m not sure if there are any designed to be attached to these sorts of bags though

I'd suggest looking up Boat / Cabin bags - they are usually waterproof. The one we bought was about 75 litres but with shoulder straps. Unfortunately, I can't remember where we bought it.

A quick Google for boat bag with wheels has brought up this.
