Been training for about 6 months. I've never run a race before but I run my first 8K on Saturday. I'm nervous and excited about it. (lemmy.today)

Make sure you have some good recovery food and drinks and warm clothes for after the finish. The race sometimes provides it but it might not be what you need/crave when you've put in a hard effort.

The race had a ton of stuff afterwards. Had me 2 pints just after, that was some killer recovery beverages 😄
