* For races that are in the [[Running in the Dark|dark]], practice [[Running Lights|running with a light]].
* If you will be running overnight, practice running overnight.
* Use your [[Long Run|long runs ]] to perfect your pre-race routine. You need to know how you body will react to different types of breakfast or fluids.
* Include the night before in your long run in your training. What you eat the night before can have a big impact on your run the following morning. The general advice is to eat pasta or similar, but I find that a high fat meal the night before is far better for me. Try different meals in training, not racing.
* Terrain - train for [[Downhill Running|hilly races]] on hilly courses. Train for [[Running Trails|trail runs]] on trails.
