Boys' Team: Eat Watermelon

It is time to re-focus our efforts on training both for the upcoming Peachtree Road Race and for the 2012 XC season. Just a reminder, Sonny and I are still planning to hold a voluntary practice on Tuesday morning at Piedmont Park for all interested runners. We will meet in the Grady parking lot (10th street) at 9:00am and plan for a good stretching session and a 2-3 mile run.

As Mr. Cramer mentioned, the Peachtree Road Race is coming up in two weeks; Sonny and I have received our numbers and plan to run. If anyone is interested in extra training, please let us know.

Please be thinking of a T-shirt design for the 2012 season! Let’s plan a get-together to discuss this and other guy stuff at the 2nd annual Grady XC foosball tournament.   

Eat watermelon! Watermelon juice can not only rehydrate you, but also provide you with certain nutrients that can promote your health and reduce your risk of disease. Watermelon juice contains potassium, a mineral that regulates water balance of your cells and kidneys. Watermelon is also a good source of lycopene and vitamins A, B-6 and C.

Happy Running!
