Today at work I had a near panic attack when I realized that the marathon is quickly approaching. The best way to calm my nerves is to start checking things off my list so at least I can put all those worries aside. Therefore, tonight as soon as I walked through the door I packed all my race day essentials in one bag so they are easy to access and nothing gets lost.
It’s amazing how much lighter my shoulders and entire body feel now that my bag is packed. I truly feel ready to go! There are no last minute errands I have to run as I have everything I need to rock out 26.2 miles with my race day ladies, Kristin and Meghan!
Since I only trust marathon Sunday with my favorite running gear, I figured I share exactly what gear will carry me across 26.2 miles from top left, clockwise:
- CamelBak HydroBak (similar but not exact)
- Lululemon Swiftly Tech long sleeve t-shirt already printed from last year’s marathon (FYI, last year I was sponsored by Choose Cherries but love the shirt so much that I figured this would
- Zensah Compression Leg Sleeves in neon pink
- Lululemon Free to Be Bra
- Garmin 405 and charger
- iPod shuffle
- Glide
- CW-X Compression shorts
- Sparkly Skirt in neon pink
- 3 packs of GU and 2 packs of Shotblocks
- Asics sweat band
- Brooks Adrenaline 13
- Sparkly Soul headband in ice pink
- Socks
What piece of gear do you rely on come race day?
