Here are a few tips for helping your daughter/son as we enter an exciting spirit-filled Homecoming week at Lakeville South:
a) Help your son/daughter get a proper amount of sleep. Teens need 8-10 hours a night…especially when they are training! Sleep helps keep illness away and helps the body rebuild and grow stronger. Go to bed!
b) Stay hydrated. Send a water bottle to school. Keep the ‘fridge stocked with water bottles’ and encourage your daughter/son to drink fluids while doing homework or relaxing around the house.
c) Eat quality calorie foods often throughout the day. Food is fuel… put in quality calories and quality workouts will result. This can also result in a young person becoming a more efficient and sharper learner! The “45 best-foods for runners” handout is attached for some suggestions.
d) Keep illness at bay…. Encourage handwashing. Put a bottle of hand sanitizer by the door. Put an extra towel and bottle of soap by each sink.
Stack the odds in your favor — help create healthy, well-rested teens at LSHS.
Thanks for helping your daughter/son become the best runner s/he can be!
