I’m planning my first half marathon in about a month and was starting to think about exactly this. On my normal long runs I don’t take anything other than my keys and can’t help but think I may be underprepared compared to more experienced runners. Looking forward to seeing the replies to this. 🙂

On a long run I take dates or chewy banana chips. Gels upset my stomach.

In the official race pack - a voucher for a sports massage or physio session; in my packed bag - a comfy pair of flip flops!!!

Once I get my bling I don't care what’s in my race pack 🏅but in an ideal world it would be an ice cold beer 🍻I always seem to start craving an ice cold beer during my races.

I've got a 10K race next weekend, and like Iprincess once I get my bling I couldn't care less 😅 but I'd love a voucher for a massage💆‍♀️

Post run banana is my go-to. Those are usually offered 🍌

After I’ve eaten the nana and had a photo taken wearing my medal (if there is one) I’d like a coffee and cake, or a voucher to get one there and then 😋☕️🍰. I’m not adverse to energy bars and/or a drink.

I’ve had beer several times but my husband drinks, it or it goes into my bread making

I’m a bit overstocked with race tees so don’t need any more 😃. Or do I 🤔😂

Vegan chocolate brownies are laid on at my annual marathon It’s tempting to eat one per lap 😁 It would probably be a mistake however ☺️
