In my experience my biggest worry the week and a half before a race is avoiding injuries. That last week, anything can happen which can blow the whole deal. How can I stay healthy and whole?
Putting in a few miles here or there is ok, but I avoid new routes and anything that isn't completely routine. A new route, for example, could come with an unexpected pothole or rock which will turn my ankle and make for an unhappy race day. Being paranoid really is good for something!
I've been getting some cario in on the exercise bike. I read the paper and pump away. It's particularly low-risk in terms of injury compared to doing a few miles, and it still gets my blood going.
