I would say just be running a few miles every day before the race, and then the day before still run, just do something really easy. How have you been training so far? It really depends what you’re going for, for what advice to give. Are you in a position where you just want to finish without walking, or are you trying to get a certain time?

One thing that’s important no matter what, is make sure to stretch a lot so you’re don’t pull anything in the cold weather, and also, before the race, don’t too much. One thing I always eat before races is bananas. Apparently they prevent cramps, and as my coach likes to say, they taste the same when you throw them up… gross, I know.

Good Luck!
