Anything else you’d like to share?
|
Review
and become familiar with the course maps. Bike or drive the course before the
race if possible to familiarize yourself with hey hills, turns, bridges, etc.
Attend the Expo and athlete meetings and listen to the PA announcements since
sometimes changes are made at the last minute
