You will need the following items on race day.
-light weight sleeping bag (you will be sleeping for a few hours sometime between Friday night and Saturday morning at a major race junction, either in a school, church, or an outside grassy location)
-High energy food snacks to last you for the race. (There will be dinner available for purchase Friday night at a major exchange, as well as a large breakfast Saturday morning. I remember the breakfast being really cheap $3-4. please post snack items that you would like and I will purchase everything before the race and you all can reimburse me.)
-Towel and shower stuff (showers are available at the Saturday breakfast exchange, and the finish line)
-Wrist Watch, MP3 player, I-pod, (to keep track of your pace, and keep you jammin out)
-Cell Phones (to help us communicate with the other van)
-A light running jacket-rain proof, and warm jacket (for runners at night, and when you are not running, it can get cold waiting at each exchange)
-Headlamp or flashlight (if running at night, you can use either one, I will have one for you unless you want your own)

Great info Daniel! Thanks!~
Not sure about snack items and what would be best. What did you do last year Daniel?
High calorie foods are best to give you energy. Last year I ate bagels, bananas, oranges, candy bars, lots of water and powerade.
I think the snacks you mentioned sound good. I also like to have some chocolate milk after a run because the carb to protein mixture is right. Cheese sticks are good also.
