have been hearing about the Indy Mini Marathon all week from my roommate who is running it for the third time. Those final 24 hours (or final 168 hours for my friend) before the big race are always filled with nervous anticipation, especially if it’s your 1st time. All the ‘what ifs’ fill your head like what if I cramp on the run? What if I forget my something I need? With all these thoughts flooding your head, there’s another critical component to your final countdown to the gun – what do I eat?
The truth is, there is not one menu which is a perfect fit for all athletes, but there are some general rules which everyone can use as a guide during the final 24 hours leading into your race.
