During your long run, after a warmup of at least ten minutes or a mile, spend a few minutes and build up to a few miles running at your goal race pace.
This is the best time to practice your nutrition. When you run at race pace it puts more stress on your body (legs, heart, and lungs) than slow pace. This leaves your body with less ability to digest food so you could experience some digestion issues. See Nutrition and Digestive Issues for more information.
Benefits: Prepare for what your race is going to feel like.
