1. Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate: Proper hydration is key to success on race day. Make sure to drink plenty of water in the days leading up to the marathon and carry a water bottle with you during the race to stay hydrated along the route.
2. Fuel Your Body: Load up on carbohydrates and electrolytes in the days leading up to the marathon to ensure your body has the energy it needs to power through the race. Stick to familiar foods that won’t upset your stomach on race day.
3. Pace Yourself: The Two Oceans Marathon is a challenging race with hilly terrain, so be sure to pace yourself accordingly. Start conservatively and gradually increase your pace as you settle into the race.
