It'll be in Bryce Canyon, UT. I know it'll be tough, but if anyone has any last minute tips, I appreciate it. Maybe around fluid and caloric intake during the race

Put a sticker on your car after.

I would stick to your guns. Whatever got you to this point is what you should use. Changing on race day is a huge no no especially in longer distance races.

trail run?
have you ran a marathon? if so, treat it like that
if not, I suggest walking the uphills, always stop and drink at any aid station, if it is a trail race, I strongly suggest having liquid on you and refilling at each aid station
as for eating during the race, I've never been one to be able to eat a lot, as it does a number on my stomach, but yes, do try to eat

Stay out of my way at the start

It seems like you should have a solid game plan for this already in place. A 50k is no casual stroll.
If this thread was just to brag that you'll be in Bryce Canyon tomorrow running a 50k, I'll admit I'm a little jealous.

what Salmon said....don't do any drastic changes. Drink and drink often. Don't forget to eat either.

1. Cut your toe nails as short as possible
2. Get a pair of Injinji socks that are skin tight
3. Lube up early and often
4. Empty your shoes as often as necessary - rocks and sand will turn your shoes into meat grinders
5. 50K isn't really that far so don't drop out no matter what, grind it out

That's awesome. Opportunities like that making me wish I was in better shape.
Guessing it'll be hot as hell in the Utah deserts once you get going so just stay more hydrated than you think is reasonable

You're doing your first 50k run tomorrow and you're just now asking for tips? And from the OT?

Subtle brag thread.
Drink water eat pasta have sex because you may die running that far.
