What would be in your bag?

Let's say you were casted for TAR (we can wish, right? :funny:) What would you bring along in your bag?

Usually, these types of posts get moved into the Questions thread, but it hasn't yet. :didimiss:

Based on reports from past racers, I would definitely pack a daily devotional Bible first. This will help keep you focused during the race.

As for some interesting items, I would say binoculars, a pitch counter, pillow case, lemon juice, and a variety of energy/power bars, just to name a few.

Personally, I'd try to attempt to bring a pet to the race. Adds some extra challenge, right?

I'm not sure what I would bring if ever I got casted, but I would most likely overpack :lol:

I believe there is a mandatory TAR supplied first aid kit. And no iPods allowed!

FWIW, a Future TAR26 "Race for the Rose" contestant posted his bag contents on instgram this week.

I don't want to break any rules, so let me know how much info I can give about this, ie. username, post actual pic, etc.
