Hello friends. Welcome to Race Week! Whether your exploring the 5–Miler, 10–Miler, or BOTH at the Kettle Cooker Five & Dime Trail Race this upcoming Sunday, October 6th.....here is a very trustworthy checklist to make sure you have everything you need before you lace up and hit the picturesque trails of the Glenroy Preserve in less than seven (7) days!
1. There is still time to get into a new pair of shoes if you'd like. The Altra Experience Flow, formerly known as the AltraFWD Experience, is a great option!
2. Philadelphia Runner gear performs well everyday in Philly (and beyond). We have a great assortment of pre-race, race, and post-race styles to choose from.....including our limited-edition 20th Anniversary Collection! Moisture-wicking everything, shorts/pants with plenty of pockets, AND.....maybe a few new pieces since our last race together.....
3. Stock up on all things hydration. It's finally Fall, but don't let the cooler temps fool you!
4. Nutrition is as essential as hydration. Load up for that last easy run, your Saturday shakeout, and of course…..Race Day!
5. Don’t forget important accessories such as socks, hats, and sunglasses.
6. Body Glide. Appreciated protection from chaffing, rubbing, pinching, and other skin irritants.
7. In additon to the Altra Experience Flow, check out some of the new releases highlighted on #MYPHILLYRUN BLOG. Look for articles beginning with 'Launch Day', 'Launch Season', or '(Pre) Launch Season.
8. Already have your Race Day playlist created? But you still want to absorb the energy of other racers and the folks cheering for you? Our bone conduction headphones allow you to do both!
9. Don't forget to recover. Let's take care of our bodies this week. And ALWAYS!
10. Have a great time! Walking, jogging, running, and/or racing should be fun!
