So I am less than 9 hours from running my next half marathon this year! I am pretty excited because I will be pacing my running buddy tomorrow so we can get her a PR which I know will happen.
Weather is on our side. It's been so hot here in Dallas, but we got a nice cold front. Today was a pretty productive day. I had packet pick up, the first chapter meeting of our sororial year and a pre race dinner. I've been eating pretty clean especially in preparation for this race.
As you see below I am race ready. It took me quite a while to figure out what shoes to wear because I have several pairs for different type of runs and workouts. I decided to go with my Kinarva 4 shoes as they are light weight and very good for me on a flat course plus I have my insoles to keep my feet in line. My Garmin is charged fully and I will be wearing my chest strap. I heart rate trained when I first started out running, so I am just use to wearing it and watching my heart rate.
I have my pre race breakfast set out. I always eat something that will stick to me such as the peanut butter which also has the protein, an apple for some sugar and half of a banana for the potassium and carbs. I eat this about 1.5 hours before the race and then I eat half a granola bar about 30min before we start the race.
I also have my clothes laid out and I am matching from head to toe. Will post pictures on my blog tomorrow with my race discussion.
Well it's 10:40pm and I need to get some rest as I have to be up at 5:30am.
