Before the race
- Hydrate well for several days leading up to your marathon.
- Eat a simple, high-carbohydrate breakfast several hours before the start of the race.
- Lather up with a little Vaseline or BodyGlide in any areas vulnerable to chafing.
- The temperature is apt to rise over the course of the race, so don't overdress.
- If you plan to run with music, check ahead of time whether headphones are allowed on the course; not all marathons permit them.
