What should spectators bring to a race?
These are mostly all-day events, but you can arrive / leave at anytime. Dress for the weather – unlike your athlete you won’t be moving to stay warm. Bring good binoculars, maybe a folding chair, a camera, an umbrella, and a smile. And an appreciation that when your child finally swings into view looking as graceful as a Thomas Eakins painting, their bodies are in extreme pain…an agony they cannot completely explain to you.
