First half marathon, beginner runner, training since October. I have no idea what to expect?
What is the difference between garbage clothes and checking the bag? How much pre-race nutrition (water/electrolytes/carbs) do you pack since shuttles start loading 2 hOuRs before the race starts?? What if I have to pee? Will there be porta-potties at the start line? So much I didn't know about this world. I am so nervous now. I am also driving in about an hour the morning of the race.
If you have ran this before how is the course? I read that there is a huge downhill at the beginning that messes with peoples pace. The map on the website is from 2025 so wasn't sure how accurate that was to this years course/aid station stops.
Any advice is appreciated...
