Essential Items for Perfect Half Marathon Race Day
Спорт
So I am running the Hackney Half Marathon on Sunday 19 May 2024 and thought I would share with enough detail why I use the kit I use with hopes that you could benefit from it.
Massive shout out to all those that completed the 2024 RBC Brooklyn Half Marathin as well.
Aslway, please let me know if I am missing anything or you have more recommendations.

A running hat (preferably a light color) absolutely is a must during the summer for protection from the sun. Especially if you're running over that 1,5 hour time. Heatstroke can be deadly, even more if you combine it with running.

Can’t argue with that but I also feel like that could be said about anything given rationale. I agree with you though
your videos are a joy to watch, hope you did well on the half marathon Aubrey

Probably the best half I’ve done and the race vlog will match that too
Good luck tomorrow Aubrey and whoever is doing the Hackney Half. I completed the Hackney 5K today and the vibe was so chill and cool! Enjoy the day it's gonna be a hot one! Jason

It was one of the best races I’ve done. No PB but man it was good. The heat was bad and many casualties on the course unfortunately
Great video Aubrey, don't know how you get on with that Maurten drink mix, it's too thick for me, love the gels though! Hope the half goes well and I'm sure you'll smash that PB!

Thank you so much, it was a great run so be sure to check out the race vlog today at 4PM UK time. It was truly an amazing experience
I’m addicted to my running hats and my sunnies. Can’t do a run without them!

I also like to wear a hat. It's nice in the cold and keeps sweat out of my eyes in the heat.

Think my message got lost lol. Love the jacket too. I am predicting you get a Pb and that you will become the next big name in running vlogging . You shine in these video's 🎉🎉

I fully receive such kind wishes. Thank you so so much. I unfortunately didn’t get the PB but had the most amazing time. I have never ran a half marathon and enjoyed it, this was my first time. You’ll see what I mean when I share the vlog
Best of luck man.Hope you get the PB you planned for. Do not depend on the pacing strategy on your watch because if the GPS messes up it would become very difficult.

Good advice. Did a 5k time-trail yesterday, running loops on a closed road till my watch registered 5k. I registered exactly 5k, my friend 5300m. One of us is wrong, as my friend has a newmulti band watch it's probably me😂 The difference is 3:52 min/k and 4:03 min/k that's a huge difference.

Thanks for the tip, yeah I agree but I always go with it as my constant prompt. Other wise I am left to see do manual splits which can get complicated and I may forget
Err Aubrey where’s your old sweatshirt or hoodie to keep you warm to the start line then throw to the charity bin before you set off!? Good luck mate 😉

Brother the weather here did not need any warming up! I kinda did suffer because of the heat but you’re right… generally speaking… old jumps should have been referenced
See you there 👍🏾

I think I was about 1 min slower than you! Not sure what ur starting pen was but didn't catch you. Was scorching just glad to cross the finishing line 🥵🫠😅 hopefully catch you at a diff race 🙏🏾
Best of luck. A note, a Maurten 160 every 20 minutes plus a Maurten drink mix is way more than optimal carbs for a Half Marathon (30-60g per hour, you’re exceeding 120/130 I think?). Just trying to save you some money! 😃

You’re spot on… I’m still learning as I go. I’ll tell you what though, in hindsight I needed it all 😂😂😂

You will have stomach upset! Drink one DM320 2hrs before the race. Get a gel 100 15 min before start. One gel 100 + Dm320 + spare gel during the race.
Sorry you couldn't break the PB. Heat slows the average runner by 4 seconds per km for every degree centigrade over 15. The seconds do add up over 21kms
