Making a list...

I've been working on my checklist in preparation for next weekend's race.
  • Shoes - Asics Cumulus 10
  • Running socks - WrightSock
  • Patellar tendon strap - Pro-tec
  • Compression shorts - Sugoi
  • Running shorts - Lululemon
  • Technical shirt - Nike
  • Hat
  • Watch - Timex
  • MP3 player - iPod
  • Gels - 2 chocolate PowerGels, 1 vanilla
  • Advil
  • Bandaids
  • Vaseline
  • Money
  • Throwaway sweatshirt
  • Race bib
  • Timing chip
  • Pace bands

The long range forecast is calling for rain on Sunday morning so that sucks. If it rains, I'll add:

  • Long sleeve technical shirt - Lululemon
  • Throwaway poncho or garbage bag

My post-race gear:

  • Sweatshirt
  • Sweat pants
  • Shoes
  • Socks
  • Sports drink - Gatorade
  • Meal replacement shakes
  • Granola bars - Kashi

I can't help but think that I'm missing something.
