Don’t let a wardrobe malfunction ruin your race!

Many runners are tempted to get new shoes and clothes for the big race which can be a huge mistake. Even if you get the same style and brand as you always get there could be a minor change that will cause problems over 13.1 miles. I recommend getting your race outfit now and do a couple of training runs before the big day. I have tried many different styles of shoes and have tested them on short runs before going to the race. I hate spending money on shoes only to find out I hate them on the run. Which is a drag but at least it didn’t ruin my race.

Good luck & see you soon!
