Race Tips

1. Try to down your gels with cold water (Faster gastric emptying, easier on the run)
2. Don't get in the water too early.  Minimize your time treading.
3. Don't rely solely on special needs bags, they may get lost.  Rely on aid stations.
4. Wear sunscreen.
5. Sight at the top of swells, not the bottom.
6. Grab two cups of ice at each aid station.  One for eating, the other goes down your shirt.
