{Printable} Marathon Packing List

How many times in the last year have I written out a packing list when prepping to travel to a race?

Way too many!

I love making lists with paper and pen, but the monotony of listing out every single item from underwear and sports bras to safety pins and hair ties finally got to me. So, I created a list for both of us to use over and over again, while saving us the headache of wondering if we left off anything important.

I hope you find this packing list useful as you get ready to travel to your fall marathon!

A Goal Setting Session or Race Day Consultation can help you with any number of concerns including the following:

  • Nail down realistic race day goals based of your training and race history.
  • Establish a pre-race routine and race day fueling strategy.

    I’m impressed! You totally nailed that list. I’ll be printing this for sure as it’s applicable to ALL races…although I would need to add about 17 items when I do triathlons… 🙂 Thanks Jess!

    Perfect timing! I am flying to Amsterdam next Friday to run the marathon on the 19th. I was just starting to think it’s time I started a list… and now you’ve done all the thinking for me. Thank you!

    My husband is always laughing at me triple checking my lists. But he also supports me fully. Sweet Man! I like the list attached to a photo. Keep moving. Karen
