From 6 months out to the minute before you cross the start line, this timeline details all the things you need to do and when.

Getting up at 4am is painful, but it doesn't have to be.

The master checklist that guarantees a great race day. 

Everything you need for race day, and everything you didn't think you'd need.

This is the first step to writing your race plan. It shows you what information to gather so that you can write your race plan with ease.

Just the things to bring with you into transition and need for the race. If you print two copies double-sided, it makes two lists; and they are an easy size to tuck into your Transition Kit. Reprintable, reusable, and sharable! QR codes and the website is right on the paper. Feel free to make copies and share with your rackmates.

Using your previous paces in workouts, races, or this race's goals you can provide your fans/family/friends with your expected arrivals at transition and the finish line.

Don't forget to write about what happened, including what you learned. Your next race day will thank you.

It's a once in a lifetime thing, unless you've got something to prove.
