Answer 1

I run the mile also so I now how to prepare. Today you should probably jog....but not too fast, don't want to tire out your body. Tonight, you should eat carbs-like pasta. Tomorrow, you should eat carbs again but also eat a banana to eliminate cramps while running. DO NOT eat anything several hours before you run. Right before you run don't forget to stretch eevery part of your legs. Hopefully this approach will get you a completely satisfactory time on your mile.

i think u should rest today so your legs won't be so tired tomorrow, if u want u can just go ahead and do a slow good jog but don't go all out! also what u can eat is a lot of carbs, like pasta, spaghetti, bread, etc. this will really help!

good luck! :]

Answer 3

DO NOT WEAR HEAVY SHOES. OR YOU WILL BE EMBARRASSED BY YOUR TIME.

Have a Vitamin C when you wake up. Eat cereal for breakfast. Breathe in through your nose and out through your mouth. Carbs do help. It is the best food for you if you don't want cramps. It is also good for giving you energy. Then you can run the mile in under 5 minutes... LIKE ME : )

Answer 4

First, stop stressing. The only thing you can do at this point is get a good night sleep and drink fluids meaning don't be dehydrated. DON'T try to carbo load at this point. Just eat normal. If you try to over do it with carbs now the only thing you'll be doing is producing a massive terd. Which will make you heavier tomorrow or even worst it might want to come out during the race. Good luck. Sleep.. drink.

Answer 5

well if you haven't already ran today, then do some easy jogging for 20 minutes to warm up your muscles. Unless your hurting then don't run.

Eat lots of carbs, such as pasta and wheat bread.
