Night before your race strategy: put breakfast next to your bed

It’s 2 hours before I run the Chilly Half Marathon this morning and I am ACTUALLY eating breakfast!

Why?

I set it next to my bed the night before. Usually I get up 2 hours and 10 minutes before, expecting I will be eating 10 minutes after I get up.

Then I lie in bed five minutes, spend twenty minutes getting dressed, wash my face, go downstairs, start toasting a bagel, and am eating one hour before the race instead of two.

So last night I sliced my bagel, put hummus in a container on a nice pack with a knife, and set everything with a banana next to my bed.

Now I’m eating before I get ready and go downstairs, with no prep work besides spreading some hummus.

It’s like I’m learning!
