No, it is much better to have a BBQ Cheddar burger from Whataburger before the race!
That's fine, but don't chew during the race! : ). You should eat lot's of carb and drink water, but not too much or you'll get a cramp!

NO! NEVER chew mint gum before doing ANYTHING physical, but especially running!
When you chew mint gum, it has a negative effect on your body. Have you noticed that when you drink water after chewing mint gum your throat feels cold and water upsets your stomach? Thats because of the reaction between your throat and the gum. It constricts your airways and can make you nausious. It also slightly lowers your stamina because you're not getting enough oxygen. If you were to still chew gum, chew fruit gum, as it doesn't have this effect.

No no no, I have ran cross-country for 2 years and only did that mistake once. Not mint gum, or anything mint really. In fact, fruit gum is better. But make sure it doesn't have a lot of sugar.
Drink water, and the best food EVER arebanana's not Oranges, nothing with acid, butbanana'sare the BEST FOOD EVER BEFORE A RACE. They have what you need.
Apples and stuff like that are good too. No milk, nothing with to much fat, and no eggs either.
The process of digestion begins in the mouth. As you chew, you release saliva into your mouth. Your saliva begins to convert starches into sugars before the food even gets to your stomach, so the starch in the rice begins to taste sweeter as you chew it. This is also quite apparent if you chew a salty soda cracker for a very long time, the flavor turns sweeter the longer you chew to mix in your saliva and cause the conversion.
Well, your saliva soaks into the gum after you chew it and makes it softer and softer the longer you chew it.

5Gum lasts the longest, of course. Chew Juicy Fruit, wait 'till it runs out, and then chew 5Gum. Just an experiment. I'm pretty sure the 5Gum will last longer though, hon.
The word, masticate, means to chew, as in "Masticate (chew) your food well before swallowing."
Well maybe if you didn't chew it so much it would last a lil longer.
Chewing is part of the mechanical digestion and breaks the food into smaller pieces, which allows the chemical digestion to be easier. A larger chunk that a child didn't chew properly will take longer time to break down into monomers to be digested.

Yes. You just need to chew the pill a few times before you swallow it. It is extended release because it takes a longer time to dissolve in your stomach, thereby taking longer to be absorbed. Breaking the pill up before it enters your stomach will cause it to be absorbed Quickly.
yes
Chew gun instead. It will last longer.
I wouldnt, it will take longer for your throat to heal if u have strep
