CVNP INVITATIONAL

Cross Country Athletes & Parents: 

Here's what's going on this week:

• Time to eat healthy, drink plenty of water, and stock up on rest! Our hard workouts will end next week. It’s time to rest, we are beginning to taper. For this last week, avoid all soda, eat very healthy foods, drink plenty of water, get a LOT of sleep (middle schoolers need to average 9 hours 15 minutes of sleep a night), and STRETCH after practice, on Sunday, and before you go to bed each night. It’s not what you do the day before a race, it matters what you do the WEEK before a race!
• Parents, we have a surplus of paper plates, plastic silverware, and napkins for the last team dinner on Friday, September 27. Just stop by my room (404) to pick up what you need.
