The Track &Field season is Heating Up
The Ohio High School Athletic Association Track & Field Championship will again be at the to Jesse Owens Memorial Stadium at The Ohio State University June 2-3. For more information on this year’s Championships - https://www.ohsaa.org/Sports-Tournaments/Track-Field/2023-Track-and-Field/2023-State-Tournament-Coverage I hope to see you at the OHSAA State Track & Field State Championship or another race this Spring.
Track & Field is one of the oldest sport known to mankind. Track & Field is one of the most diverse sports as there are 17 different events for high school athletes and 20 for collegiate athletes to challenge themselves. According to The National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS) girl’s track & field is the largest participatory sport for high school girls and track & field is the second largest participatory sport for boys. With the popularity and diversity of Track & Field why have some many Mid American Conference schools and other NCAA Division I universities dropped Men’s Track & Field.

The Athlete’s Kitchen - Carbs & Runners: Friend of Foe?
by Nancy Clark
|
|
To allay any confusion, let’s clarify what carbs actually are. Carbohydrates include both sugars and starches. Carbs are in fruits, vegetables, grains, and milk (lactose). Sugars and starches all digest into the simple sugar glucose. Glucose travels in your blood and, with the help of insulin, gets taken into muscles and stored as glycogen for fuel. Runners who restrict carbs commonly complain about “dead legs.”
