REMINDERS:
- We are meeting at BHS Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday of this week! On Thursday we will go back to meeting at the gazebo.
- EVERYONE needs a WATCH and a BLACK sports bra (good ones at Target right now!)
- We will be doing water workouts starting next week. Please be sure to print out and have your parents sign the BAY POOL WAIVER (see link to the right under IMPORTANT FORMS)
- Sign up for Classic at Mastick. You can just send form and $ in to the address on the form! The race fills up quickly and we want you all to show off all your hard work!
- FUEL YOUR BODY FOR SUCCESS! Read below!
FUEL YOUR BODY:
WATER! - Please be sure to be drinking AT LEAST 64 oz. of water a day (8 8 oz. glasses). It is so important that you replenish and refuel yourself before and after each workout.
FOOD! - Be smart about the meals and snacks you have throughout the day. Carbs are important but also be sure to increase the iron, calcium, and protein intake! After each workout you have 60 minutes to replace vital proteins that help your muscles recover (wouldn't it be nice to be less sore and stiff after those hill workouts?). Please click HERE to read an important article from Runner's World that includes some important nutrition information and good snack ideas.
We know it can be hard to eat before and after your workout but if you find a small and nutritious snack that you can tolerate you will be much happier with your performance and how you feel! It's good to find something that works for you at practice before your first meet so you are feeling your best on race day!
Just a few ideas:
- Chocolate Milk
- Apple or Celery with Peanut Butter .... Ants on a Log...Yum!
- Bagel or Toast with PB and or jelly
- Oatmeal (add milk, raisins, dry fruit, etc.)
- Protein shake/smoothie
