No, no treadmill, though I was welcome to run around the shop a bit. Obviously this is entirely inadequate for getting a proper feeling for a pair of shoes but I already had a good idea of what I wanted and have been using other inov-8s for a while so not too fussed. Plus I reckon you don't really get a proper feeling for the shoes until you've put 50-100km in in them by which point no shop is going to let you return them anyway!
Will let you know how the camelbak goes, I bought it for the TP100 where I'm hoping my support team (i.e. my mum) can keep me well supplied so I don't need to carry much. Compulsory kit is just water bottle, phone, space blanket, headtorch and a spare light source so not much at all!
