Reply from Christina, Age 16 - 04/16/05 - IP#: 24.233.69.xxx Hey. In the morning, eat a bananna. I eat one before I play a soccer game becusae you DONT get cramps and you just feel energetic. As for being nervous, I used to do winter track. I just thought of the race as, (depends what your running.) It will be over in ___ seconds, I'm burning calories, and I'm not gunna die. I hate track meets. I know how you feel, but once its over, youll feel a lot better. As long as you finish the race, then you have no problem. And the people your going to be running against will be just as nervous as you. TRUST ME ON THAT! Okay now for your shin splints. Tonight, take a hot bubble bath and stretch in the shower. It might not cure you 100 % but your feel more relaxed, get a good nights sleep, and youll feel refreshed for tomorrows meet. Good luck!
