My wife and I will be running again this year. We have been running the 10K every other year. This will be our 3rd race
I'm training for the half Marathon, but i will decide on that closer to race.
I haven't been drinking the night before but after the race for sure. I don't like when my blood alcohol level drops too low.
the pasta party is fun and great food. The party after is fun talking with your fellow survivors.
The only tip I can give you is to learn to drink while running and don't pass up water stops.
