OMG!! Team Footloose and Panty Free gets a shout out for our strung up panties... but he failed to mention our couch?? And obviously, since he says "you do not want to be drinking beer constantly" he was not aware of our homebrewed "Ragnar Red Recovery Ale" kegs either.
Bring at least one extra headlamp. I recommend wearing one like a belt and pointing it down towards your feet. Also, a flashlight in hand will help a lot for night runs.
Great tips! Another thing to keep in mind that goes with #13 - if it's a cup-less race (Vail Lake in CA was) do not under estimate the trails and think you won't need water bottles or hydration packs during your run. They have water on the course, but if you do not have anything to put it in it's pretty pointless. I found myself desperately needing water during a 4 mile loop and had no way to successfully get it. I ended up getting down underneath the spout and tried to catch it in my mouth. Also, check out the elevation map and don't under estimate the hills/cliffs!!
