>>u00a0Stay relaxed and confident as the race day approaches and know that pre-race nerves are normal.
>>u00a0Try to avoid stress-inducing activities or situations.
>>u00a0Prepare your shoes, clothes and bag a day before, don't wait till the last minute.
>>u00a0Get your friends and family on board to be your race supporters.
