I will hopefully get my "hydration pack" tomorrow. I would like to test it tomorrow as well, by running 5.6 miles (my standard distance to bookstore and back) with it and drinking from the tube etc.
Is this a good idea to run for 5.6 miles, given that I have a race on Sunday. Or should I run less.
That's difficult to say without knowing your running history for the past several months. Normally you'd want to taper. However, If you've been running 6 miles per week, I don't know if tapering is valid.
