^^^ is it not to early to start loading. Should that not be done the day before or atleast only 2 days before?

you have up to 5 days from your race to do a carbo load. Muscle glycogen levels will remain the same up until that time. But you need to have tapered also. Personally I have found that 3 days prior works best for me. I am hoping for a PB this weekend.
