Competitor Magazine’s Beat Your Best Boston Marathon Superguide Tip #2

By T.J. Murphy

Tip number 2: Do activities that take your mind off the race. Movies in your hotel room will give your brain a sweet little vacation from the thought of an approaching marathon. And of course there’s nothing like a good book if you’re a reader. Or playing board games with family or friends. It can be just about anything if it’s lighthearted, takes your mind off the race for a couple of hours and allows you to get off your feet.
