Pre-race Preparations

Eeek...I am soooooooooo nervous about the Two Oceans race on Saturday in Cape Town. I am trying to take deep breathes and thinking of the tour in the stellenbosch wine route the day after the race.

Lists always help.

Race week preparations:

• Go for two easy runs
• Drink water
• Buy energy beans
• Buy and test 'run' a bigger knee brace....I really don't think the brace is supposed to cut off all blood circulation! 
• Buy ibuprofen
• Phone Expedia (once more!!) and confirm that a refund is being processed for the messed-up flight.
• Sort out transport to and from the airport
• Don't drink...save it for the vineyards of Cape Town!
• Charge i-pod and camera
• Pack; remember to put running gear in hand luggage
• Paint nails the same colour as running cap!!
• Don't worry if you only have time for half of the things on the list!
