Today is race day and I’m currently running the C and O 100 mile race. I have this post scheduled out, but here’s some things I like to remind myself on race day:
Stay present
Focused
Know why you want to run far
When shit goes sideways just hang on long enough, it always passes.
Pay attention:
- Physically – how does my body feel
- Internally – how is my gut? Am I consuming enough calories, salt, and water?
- Mentally – how is my thought pattern?
Fall back on your training. That’s going to get you to the finish line.
