11 days is a long time, nothing to scoff at when you\u2019re talking about eating and drinking and schmoozing and fun. Though it\u2019s terribly tempting, don\u2019t leave the gates that first weekend as though you\u2019re on the 100-metre dash. Think of this more like a marathon \u2014 even and steady wins the race. Pace yourself. It\u2019s the best way to ensure you don\u2019t miss a thing.<\/p>\n
