Success! 

I ran an extra-long route home after work, with my work clothes rolled up in my rucksack, which I pulled the straps tight, and used the chest strap for extra snugness to my body.  RunKeeper says I covered 1.97 miles in the 28.5 minutes, which is a bit less than last time, except last time I wasn't paying attention exactly when I stopped.

I am finding it .... satisfactory - enjoyable sounds too strong, but I'm certainly not disliking it.

Yay, we both kept going into the second day! I'm impressed you can run with a rucksack. I find that having anything on my back, even light, messes with my posture enough that I can't really breathe deep enough even for fast walking, never mind running. This has the annoying practical consequence that I have to organize to put my stuff in a safe place before I can start running, which restricts options a bit. Even when I can run 5k, I won't be able to just run home from work, for example.

To my surprise, I think I'm finding it satisfactory too, whereas I expected to dislike or even hate it.
