Pre-race Form

Use this form to race day, but not too close to get some pre-race thoughts in.

What is this for

This form helps us catch any last-minute questions or concerns about your race pacing, effort, gels, nutrition, and more—so you’re feeling calm and confident going into your event.

When to fill this out

Try to complete it about 7 days before your race (not earlier)
Avoid submitting it within 36 hours of the event (so I have time to get it done) —at that point, it’s best to focus on rest and routine.

This is more important for hot or cold weather days, and especially for trail events. But also to note if you will wear a cap, sunglasses, what mode runners (and if you decide to wear a different model and for what reason)

Have you any questions/concerns about the day?
