* '''Beware the aid stations''' These are wonderful places, but time passes quickly. See [[Aid Stations]]
* '''Stay awake''' For most runners, the race will last most of the night, making sleep deprivation an issue. I wish there were a cure for this, but the best I can do is covered in [[Sleep Deprivation in Overnight Events]]
* '''[[Drop Bags]]''' If you have the option of using drop bags, I would take it unless you have a crew that will be there. See [[Drop Bags]]
* '''Post run clothes''' Think ahead to after the race and pack a change of comfy clothes and some slippers.
* '''Second dawn''' The second dawn on a race brings hope that is hard to describe. I have found it to be a deeply spiritual experience. If your finishing time is going to take you through the second dawn, look forward to it; things do get better when the sun comes up.
