Also, if you are having very heavy flow on the day of the race, I believe that Tampax now makes an "Ultra" absorbency tampon, which is a level up from the Super Plus. Not available everywhere, but I remember seeing them right before we left the US.

This may be totally different from your situation, but just in case anyone is interested and doesn't already know: if you are on birth control pills, you can take your active hormone pills continuously (don't do the placebo week) and not get periods at all. I've been doing it for years. That's pretty much why I stay on the pill - I could use something else for birth control, but I like not getting periods.
