WOLVERINES​​

> It was super hot, which made racing hard, but it was hard for everyone and hard isn't bad.   We thrive on challenges.

> Heat and humidity factor impacted 5K race times about 1 minute for later races, 2 minutes for early ones.

 

> Varsity guys were in about 20th place in team score at the mile.  They ran forward to 6th.  585 pts to 358.

> The average returners was :25 faster than our 1st 5K last year.  I bet no one would have guessed that!

> 14 athletes hit the letter standard of sub 23:00.  The goal is 30!

> Thank Eli for doing the lonely 1 mile split camera duty so you have split info

> Congrats to all the athletes who ran their 1st high school 5K cross country race!  You likely won't run in a hotter race.

​

> SLEEP IS A CHEAT CODE!   Want to run better?  Make school easier?  Just be in a better mood?   SLEEP MORE

> EAT MORE!   3 meals plus snacks (banana, squeeze apple sauce, PB&J, chocolate milk before bed)

> Protein.   Carbs.  Iron rich foods + vitamin C.   Calcium rich foods + vitamin D.

> Vitamin D is very helpful for bone health, boosting immune system and mental health.

> Drink not only water but fluids with sodium, potassium and magnesium.  Have headaches?  This could be your cure!
