Hi there,
I'll be running my first stagerace this weekend and was wondering if anyone has experience with this kind of race and could offer me some tips and tricks.
The race is as following:
- Sat 11am: 4k with 350m of elevation
- Sat 4pm: 20k trailrun
- Sun 11am: 25k trailrun
Besides carbing up, I've been resting up like a pro.
After the first stage I guess the best strategy would be to get in a recoveryshake, take a hot shower, followed by a good meal and get some rest before the second stage. Maybe some foamrolling.
Kind of worried about how my body will feel the second day. Never raced back to back days before. Probably should take my time for a lenghty warmup and focus on some mobility. A few caffeine gels should help me get me on track aswell.
Any tips are appreciated!
