On a Shenandoah trail run this past weekend, I just tried out the ak ultimate direction race vest and I really liked it. It is very light and minimalist, and it has a number of easily accessible pockets for gels, electrolytes, mp3, etc. Actually, the setup of access points is very similar to the way I had my Osprey talon 33 pack setup for the Gobi. While I am not a fan of the water bottles that come with the vest, they can easily be replaced by others (i.e., Hydrapak Gel-Bot is my choice of bottle). In short, this vest should work well for future 50ks/50milers/ect.
