What am I missing? October 16, 2009
I think I packed everything I need for the Nike race into one little backpack. Why do I feel like I’m forgetting something?

I always lay out everything I need to make sure I’m not missing anything. I’ve got my fuel belt, my race day outfit, my garmin, Clif shot Bloks, Powerbars, Body Glide, Hat, Water Bottles and a few other things.
I’ll be wearing my LA Racers shirt with pride! It was so proud of us to put the logo on the back, so the bib doesn’t cover the logo in the front!

My fuel! I love the Shot Bloks. They come in awesome easy to eat packages now too. Just push em’ up and pop em’ in! YUM! The bar at the top is a Pure Protein bar with 20g of protein in it. I’m going to put that in my post race bag to eat right after I finish. 🙂 And the Power Bar is “Just in Case I crash” fuel that I’ll carry with me too.

I ❤ My garmin! It’s been running with me for 3.5 years I think now! I’m going to use it to keep my pace and track my time.

This is a must have for a race that starts cold and dark like Nike does. It’s usually freezing at the start line. I always save last year’s foil to use at the start of my next race. I’ll wear it to keep warm and then toss it to the side of the road once I cross the start line.

Last but not least… body glide…. I think that speaks for itself.
And then I’ve also got sunglasses, my camera, my phone, and post-race flip flops.
Did I miss anything?
I’ll be posting here throughout race weekend! Wish me luck!
