5. Read The Instructions
“Be aware of race directions and parking instructions. Don’t wait ‘till the last minute to read the race instructions. Don’t just look at them six months ahead of time when you sign up. Things change all the time. Even if you are completely familiar with the city you are racing in, make sure to read the instructions and find out how you’re going to get to the race.”

Linzay Logan is the copy editor for Competitor magazine and cares about punctuation probably a little too much. She particularly loves to avoid commas as well as add exclamation points whenever she can get away with it! She also loves to run marathons and half-marathons—probably a little too much. Don’t let her small size fool you; she’ll still try to outrun you anytime. Even though chances are she probably can’t.
