There is a 12L as well but that might be too small - you can't pack lightweight sacks TOO full or they don't sit comfortably on your back!

On my Ultra 15, I can reach 2 on the waist strap and also the two external ones on the back. The ones on the back are good for discarding gloves, headtorch, wrappers etc.. when they are no longer needed. They are good because odd shaped stuff that would dig into you (like the torch) can go somewhere but still be accessible on the run. My day to day rucksack (not for running) also has similar, and I'd have to say I wouldn't buy anything without something that you can reach without taking the pack off having had them now
