hey all
my first post here
im a Sophmore in HS and me and three other kids are running in a Sophmore Championship 4 by 400 at the Armory in NYC for the New Balance Games
ive worked my ass off all year to make it to the top 4 400 runner in my class ( abour 850 kids ) and it all comes down to basically this one meet!
im just wonderin what i should eat leading up to the meet, the night before, and the mornin of the meet
I will be running a Quarter Mile and we think we have a REAL good chance of medaling!
Remember this will not be a long race ( hopefully ) so keep that in mind
thanks alot for all of your help

Well, up until the day before, I wouldn't be too concerned with what you're eating... I mean, keep it healthy, but don't go too psycho w/ it. But the day before... starches, carbs, water... don't forget water... etc. There isn't a specific diet plan, but, make sure it's not too sugary. The day of... well, keep it limited. The 400's a puker's race, and you don't want to be throwing up acidy foods or drinks like oranges or orange juice... I heard that one hurts... but yeah, I think that covers it.
