RACE DAY PLAN
After training is done, tapering is well underway and the race is around the corner, what is left to do? Plan out your race day! A solid plan makes race day smooth, reduces stress and means you can enjoy the day that much more!
Here is an idea of what to consider when prepping for race day:
-
Lay out your clothes the night before
-
Pack what you will need the night before (spare clothes for the finish line, energy gels, water bottle etc.)
-
Make a check-list in the run up to ensure you have everything you need.
-
Check your times. When do you need to be at the start line? When do you need to leave to get there? When do you need to wake up?
-
Know how to tackle the race. Start slow, and stick to your pace!
-
Remember to have fun!

ONE LAST THING...
We did not expect the past few months to be as challenging as they have been, but the team have all taken the challenge and done a fantastic job! In light of the dedication, talent, and passion demonstrated by each of the members, this weekend would not have been as special as it is destined to be without each of them! We want to thank each and every one of our runners for your participation this year! We are so proud of #MM23 and it would not have been possible without you!
Good luck on your run, and remember, you've got this 😉 ❤️
