The Green Girl's Athens Marathon Packing List

The Green Girl's list is still a work in progress but I wanted to go ahead and post it after a few people asked me exactly what I'm packing.

A few days before I leave, I will take my luggage out in front of my apartment and spray the outside of it with OFF! Deep Woods DEET. I will allow it to dry for a couple of days before I put all my stuff back in. This is my attempt to keep bed bugs from infiltrating my suitcase.

The Green Girl's Packing List

Luggage
Toiletry Kit
Medication/First Aid Bag
Backpack
Purse

    But really, great packing list! I may have to print it out to keep as a reference list.

    that's quite a list.. u prob know this already, but I think they r scrutinizing liquids. Just noticed your cold medicine, shampoo, conditioner, any contact lens stuff, etc. just mentioning in case u need to look for smaller bottles for these liquids. what about a laptop with satellite internet so you can update the Green Girl blog? This Athens marathon, along with the Great Wall of China, have to be the coolest destination marathons ever!

    Tracy, I have been experimenting with my nutrition non-stop since started training for this race. I am not fond of sports nutrition and almost always take 'real food' with me on my runs but I wanted to give gus/gels/bars/etc. another try.

    I discovered I really like honey on my runs so I buy those sticks that the honey people sell at the farmer's market and I just chew on the end until the honey comes out and then I suck on it as I'm running. It's just the right amount for me.

    This makes me feel better about my own slightly epic pack list for the same event!
