Marathon Race Day

Here are a few quick tips to take on the day of your marathon so that you can get to the starting line in full peak condition and give the marathon your best shot:

On the day of your marathon you should be very familiar with the routine that you should go
through if you have been following the advice given in `Marathon Bible' and applying it to your
longer Sunday training sessions.

You should be awake 3-4 hours before the start of the race, have your breakfast approximately 3 hours before the start, 2-3 glasses of water to hydrate your body 2 hours before the start and have your bag full of everything you need ready to go by your front door.

As a final check, make sure you have everything by going through your checklist one final time and make sure in particular that you have the most essential items such as your running shoes, shorts, singlet and entry number. Now is definitely not the time to start experimenting with your routine!

You should be at the start line around 1 hour before the scheduled starting time. You should do your final warm-up approximately 30 minutes prior to the starting gun sounding and again, make sure that you avoid the temptation of your warm-up being too fast.

As you line up to the starting line you should consciously continue to move your body in order to keep the blood flowing so that your body remains in peak condition and so that you can give your body the best chance of a successful marathon.

It is now that you should be mentally focused on your marathon vision and know exactly what you want to achieve. This is the time. This is what you have been training the last few months for. And you now know you are in peak physical condition to do this.

I have written `Marathon Bible' to get you to the starting line fully prepared to run your first marathon and knowing in your own mind that you can do it. If you want to run a marathon and haven't yet educated yourself on exactly how any beginner can do it, then you must read my e-book `Marathon Bible' to give yourself the best chance possible:

Marathon Bible

"Whatever you can do or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it." --Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

That's right, as Goethe says, there is boldness in just beginning it. You can run a
marathon if you just get out there and start, and I'll be there with you every step of the way.
