The sooner your race, the lighter your breakfast, and dairy+danger if eaten too close to a race. make sure you have at least three hours before dairy. one more note, if you want to run faster for 1.5 miles. you should run at least 1.5 miles consistently! and dont forget to stretch (20-30 secs per stretch) Good luck! if you feel sick try being more hydrated. its very important to drink water the day before (!) a race. also yet a good carbohydrate filled dinner, and a breakfast size based on how soon your race is.

This saves so much energy. You could chip off at least 30 seconds with keeping your head straight forward and not bobbing around. Run with your head in a fixed position. This saves so much energy.
