Tip of the Month
by UPMC Health Plan "No matter what the level of ability, you have more potential than you can develop in a lifetime."
(James T. McCay) Water and fuel demands increase as your running distance increases. Have about one-half cup of fluids every twenty minutes and a snack of simple carbohydrates (such as sports gels, packets of honey, and energy drinks), every 45 minutes. Avoid fiber, protein and fat because these take longer to digest and can cause stomach cramps. For recovery nutrition, don't forget that real food can be just as good as, if not better than, sports bars and powders. |
ChronoTrack Timing
The D-TagTM is an all-weather disposable tag that participants peel off their bib and place on their shoe to record their time. The D-tag is easy to attach to your shoe and is far lighter and less intrusive than other timing tags and chips. It allows athletes to spend more time focusing on their competition and less time waiting in lines.
