I can’t ditch the watch.., I cover the watch on easy days.. but I need to keep track of the mileage on strava, when I sync the garmin

I agree with your tips I just want to add some of my own.
1, Motivation, find something to motivate you. I like to store some memories in my head and when the going gets tough I think about these motivational aspects. Like I'll imagine the crowd cheering on Eric Moussambani in the Sydney Olympics. That literally gives me an adrenaline boost.
2, Do a really easy 50-60km slow jog about 2 months before your marathon as doing more miles will help build confidence even if it's just a super slow run.
3, Drink Wheatgrass shots - insanely good for you.
4, Wear Superfeet insoles
5, Cross train, doing a bit of cycling for around 3-4 hours.

I have been fasting for the past 3 years and I've been good. I tend to recover better while fasting. I also noticed I don't run fast but I just have enough endurance to go the extra mile if I wanted to. I will be doing my first marathon this coming weekend. I am hoping for the best.

On easy days, I just delete all of my other data fields so only HR is displayed

Gonna be real, this is not good advice.

Firstly, the most sage wisdom in endurance training right now (to the point of being cliche) is to run slowly to train your aerobic (low heartrate) running capacity while gradually increasing mileage and pace. This recovery-run mindset is what makes running sustainable through a quadratic increase of miles ran through marathon training. For more, look up the Maffetone Method.

Secondly, fasting is a great way to manage weight in some circumstances. Timing is key: you need to give your body the carbs at the right time for fuel, and protein at the right time for recovery, and fasting in between can help to accomplish optimal body weight. This is very person specific, so generalizations aren't helpful.

Cycling through shoes quickly indicates that you are relying on shoes that are heavily cushioned, which isn't ideal as it can lead to poor form (heel striking) and therefore to lots of knee injuries. The more minimalist you go with footwear, the less you need new shoes and your form will improve as well.

I write this out in hopes that I can save even one person from making some of the mistakes I did in my youth, since I've never had a coach and have had to figure this out myself. I started as a chonky kid with bad knees and over many years (and many mistakes) have worked my way to marathons.

Good luck to you ~
