My first Mini-Marathon is less than two weeks away. May 2, 2009 to be exact. In good old Indianapolis, Indiana! It kicks off a month of fun events around the City ending with the Indy 500. I feel like I have a good feel for the race, training is going well and I have completed a 15K 3 weeks ago. My question is for all those runners that have ran long distances during thier cycle. I hate to bring it up but...I believe I will be having my cycle during my mini-marathon. Is there anything extra I need to do to prepare for this i.e drink certain fluids, eat more protein...??? Thanks for any advice or suggestions anyone can provide.
