Run Overview
Today is my long run. Which means I am trying to do everything as close to the race day as possible. That means I wake up at the same time. Start the run at the same time. Use the same clothes, shoes, nutrition, and stretching/warmups. So, wake up 5:20 am. Put a coffee pot on, drink a gass of water with some salt. Eat 2 pieces of bread. Stretch, use a bathroom. and Start running at 6 am.
