Efforts to minimize the chance of inconvenient washroom issues and deal them gracefully have been common challenge among marathon runners. Runners should be very careful with timing of the last meal so that your body gets enough time to fully digest the meal and get rid of the waste before race time. There is sufficient arrangement for toilets enroute and runners should not face any problem.
If you're menstruating, use unscented sanitary products to avoid discomfort and change your tampoon or pad right after your run.

A runner should have a regular shower to help keep them clean and free of odours. You are suggested to wear underwear and running shorts with loose fitting and built in liners. Side by side, you must wear good quality and clean socks which can prove to be a great investment as it can minimize the chances of blisters.
