Make sure your well hydrated before & after your run.
Keep a banana handy for potassium & remember to also stretch before and after your race.

drink plenty of fluids before you run (i drink about 2-3 bottles of water). and dont eat 1 hr to 45 minutes before you run. if you get a cramp, try to push on it. sometimes the cramp will go away. good luck :]
