Velociraptor Apr 2018 12:30pm, 20 Apr 2018 38,150 posts	0 Velociraptor Eating pasta for breakfast is unnecessary; being seen to eat pasta for breakfast in order to look like a serious marathon runner to potential sponsors may be a sound public relations move.

FreshStart Apr 2018 1:41pm, 20 Apr 2018 2,872 posts	0 FreshStart I tried to eat pasta for 'breakfast' the day of the Great Birmingham Run. I discovered that (a) force feeding myself pasta at 09:00 was impossible and (b) races with a lunchtime start time don't suit my temperamental digestive system.

Zehnderboy Apr 2018 7:23pm, 21 Apr 2018 4,531 posts	0 Zehnderboy Yep 8:30 for me too, time for breakfast, chill, fetchie meet up, dump bag and head to the start pen Some good advice I have had is to bring something to sit on and take the weight off your feet whilst waiting for the start, we'll be on our feet for long enough.
