Cash and ID
Cash will come in handy because you might need to pay for parking or partake in post-race festivities. If you want to enjoy food or beer afterwards you'll need some cash. Or, maybe you'll want to buy memorabilia. Some races have really great apparel that will show off your accomplishments. You'll need an ID to check-in if there is race-day check-in and to drink at the after-party.
