This Saturday is the day we have all been training for! Push yourself and come up with a plan on how you are going to run this race. Remember that the beginning of any race is exciting! It is easy to get carried away and run faster than what you are planning on doing.

Come up with a nutrition plan. When I race I will usually take a gel like Gu or a chew like a Clif Shot Block every 30 to 40 minutes. Remember that it is better to get the nutrition in before you feel like you need it. Once you feel like you need some calories it can be a little late. Come up with a plan this week and stick to it for your race. Call me (Kris LeSueur @ (602) 430-9060) if you have any questions. Race day is not the day to experiment with nutrition. You will do great! This is a great race and a great course![/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][/vc_column][/vc_row]
