I'm doing my first century in a month and don't really know what to expect. Does anyone have any suggestions, food, clothes, training, anything to help ease the fear? I just want to make sure I dress right, bring the right stuff with me, and am as prepared as possible ...

My husband had to leave last week on a family emergency and I'm taking care of my son 24/7 so my training regimen has gone out the window. It looks like it could be a couple of weeks before I can really ride again, so I'm planning on just doing my best and hoping to finish. If I don't, at least I will have stood up.
