I run a lot of races. They're mostly half-marathons, run at a slower-than-average pace, with a handful of this-is-crazy-talk marathons thrown in for good measure. Eating Pizza Luce, preferably Ruby Rae, beforehand has become my tradition. Even if all the running magazines suddenly said that carbs were evil and I should be living off apples and cheez whiz the 12 hours before a race, I would still drum up a couple of willing friends to support my carb-loading the night before 13.1 (or 26.2) miles. Ruby Rae is my good luck charm, lets hope she works for the Urban Wildlands race tomorrow!
