pre race

the week before race day only run 2-4 miles each day and rest or walk a few miles the day before. drink lots of water and don't over do it. when you eat the day before have a normal breakfast and lunch then for dinner eat a carb like rice, fruit or noodles, and have a protein like fish, chicken, or steak. drink lots of water until about 2 hours before the race then stop so that you can go to the bathroom before race. get to bed early and wake up about a hour before to give you enough time to get ready. the most important tip is to not start off too strong during the race.
