It's that time again, after about 2 months of practice and running on my own, it's time to begin the race that I've been focusing on for some time.
this is the plan for RACE DAY

cloudy with a chance of rain!
it will be a 5 PM race, so I will be planning my entire day out to the tee
Sunday, February 28th, 2021; 5:15 start.
wake up at 9 am and eat breakfast, which will be oatmeal and a banana, with a cup of coffee.
I got to make sure to drink 20 ounces of water!
lunch is going to be something simple so at 3:00 pm I will eat something small. I plan on eating toast and eggs with a glass of soymilk(allergic to dairy) and 20 more ounces of water!
head to the park at 4 pm and I start my warmups and stretch with my foam roller.
4:30 pm: I should be warmed up and I should go and run 8 minutes out and 8 minutes back, about 2 miles warmup. once done with the warmup run, I will put on running tags and stickers and drink 2 cups of water then huddle (just myself, self positive thoughts and remember back I ran cross country with my team and feel the emotions that are running high in my head. make a 5-minute prayer just like the ol' days)
5:00 pm get in line and get ready for the gun.
stay tuned to find out how the race went in the mud!
