* Perform [[Race Simulation]] as part of your training.
* Train in the shoes [[Shoes]] you will race in. Don't race in new shoes[[Shoes]].
* Practice [[Practical Hydration|drinking]] like you will in a race. If you are getting paper cups that you are going to drink on the run, practice on a long run. It is tough to drink and run!
* If you are intending to eat on the race, this requires practice at race pace. Even getting a gel out of a pocket and open at race pace can be difficult. With gels, practice if you are going to take with fluid, swallow fast, or take a bit at a time while mixing with saliva (my approach).
