This will be a very brief post since I’m super busy at work, spent the night watching Hart of Dixie with my sister (with a 4.4 mile run mixed in), and still haven’t packed for the RTB Relay that’s coming THIS weekend! I have to say I’m an awful chronic overpacker. I get it from my mom for sure so its genetic, therefore, I can’t be held responsible. And I’m sticking to that story.
Since I’ll be in a van for 24 hours and 200 miles I can’t pack as much as I usually do for the sake of space but instead have to consolidate. Ugh. My least favorite word. I’m finding this incredibly difficult at the moment and would love some words of wisdom from anyone with advice for packing for such a race. Any help is welcome 
Oh, and most importantly, what food suggestions do you have? I need to get some good snacks!
I also have some AMAZING teammates and would love for you to get to know them a bit more. One of them, Sarah, wrote a great post with links to all the blogs of my teammates that you can read here.
Can’t wait post pictures from the race. We plan to get into the New Jersey theme pretty hard!

Good luck this weekend!!! I’m doing a similar race in January- running from Miami to Key West!! Let me know if you have any tips since I have NO idea what I got myself into!
Can’t wait!!! So excited to meet you on Thursday!
I have heard from other blogs that have done relays that packing wise its good to put everything you need for one running outfit in one of those big ziplock bags and mark it with what day/race that way you aren’t digging through your bag to look for things! this blog had a really great post on how to pack!

It might be too late to pass on info but what I wish that I would have had for Hood to Coast was salty foods… pringles were perfect! GOOOOD LUCK!
