1. Start by training regularly and gradually increasing your mileage over time.
2. Make sure to focus on proper form and technique when running.
3. Eat a healthy diet that is high in carbohydrates and low in fat.
4. Get plenty of sleep the night before the race.
5. Practice breathing exercises like diaphragmatic breathing to help you relax and stay focused during the race.
