Pre-race routine:

Parents picked me up and we went to Leslie's. Jason drove. We stopped at Rasta Ranch to get Chris some Uncle Homer's Red (and I had a little bit!). Then we made our usual bathroom stop at McDonald's in Ovid. Found a good parking spot, put on our costumes, and took pictures.
Event warmup:

None, just walking over to the start.

First, with your upcoming 5K, I strongly advise you to check out the “Couch to 5K” training schedule. This training schedule is a GREAT way to get back into running safely and wisely.
