At a ract it’s always busy and it’s easy to forget something. To avoid this we’ve assembled a checklist for you:

 

 

 

 

NUTRITION

• Sport liquids (Gatorade, etc) – use something which will also be provided at the race location. Your stomach should know it.
• Cereals in the morning / coffee / take cooked noodles with you – eat a lot of carbs 1-2 days before the race
• Gels and bars for your race
• Schedule your eating for your race (which bar / gel when?)

CLOTHING AND EQUIPEMENT

• Heart rate monitor band, heart rate monitor itself, distance counter (batteries!)
• Chip (do not forget to add the right number of your chip)
• Running shoes
• Running Pant
• Running Shirt
• Socks
• Chip band for your foot
• Race number band (fix your race number on the band before start)
• Jogging pant and clothes for after-race (sweater)
• Something to protect your head (cap) against sun
• 2 pairs of running shoes (one pair for warm-up before start)

• sun cream
• moisturizer
• Vaseline or similar creme (to protect your nipples 🙂
