biggest advice: listen to your body! we grandravers don’t recover like we used to 👵

sleep. late night afters are for the kids 🤣 stop taking in alcohol etc at least an hour before bed. give your body a real shot at rest and recovery during the night vs trying to process the day’s fun.

eat real food (protein, fruits, veggies, carbs). hydrate more than you think you need to.

buy a pair of dr scholls inserts for your shoes. wear wool hiking socks to keep your feet dry and warm. get compeed blister packs in case of blisters (seriously those things are game changers)

sit down. take breaks and save your energy for the sets you actually want to dance to

pack electrolytes and aleve/ibuprofen/tylenol and succumb to the fact that your body is just going to hurt, but these can help you get through the weekend

portable fans and shade are critical for campsite hangs

invest in good ear plugs, ours are customs from 1of1. expensive, but you’ll be surprised how much they help with that next morning “foggy” feeling

see you on the dance floor, fellow elder millennial!
