Dear SF XC Parents and Scholar/Athletes,
RE: Summer and Fall XC News and Firework Booth Help
We will only have one XC Camp this summer...That camp will be in August at Lake Tahoe, near Tahoe City...Same place as usual...Camp dates should be August 6,7,8, & 9...Cost- approx. $150.00...If someone wants to organize another camp in June, that would be fine with me...Just let me know and I can help get the word out...
We should have a very good and exciting XC team for 2009...For the best individual success of everyone, continuing to train very soon after the conclusion of track is the way to go...To much down time only will slow your progress for improving and risk getting injured if you try to come back to fast...Fun runs for conditioning will start in early June...I would like to get more hill work in this summer for the team...More info later...
*****Coach Tom and I could use your help again in the firework booth again this summer...Hopefully, you will volunteer for a few hours...You can earn parent hours for your help...Dates--June 28th--July 4th...The last 3 days are the most busiest time in the booth...That is when we need the most help...The booth will be open from 9:00am--9:00pm...We will schedule 3 hour shifts...Please, keep us in mind this summer...Thanks...Coach John SF XC T/F

MEDICAL TENT
Team resource area for pertinent nutrition and medical info
+ Iliotibial issues ...from Coach Tom
+ More on Iron ...from Elicia Fernandez
+ Iron Fact Sheet ... from Kim Anderson
Thanks contributors.
HIGH IRON FOODS: There are several good sources of iron including: beef, fish, poultry, eggs, whole grains (such as oats, bran cereal and wheat germ). Other good sources include fortified breads and cereals, dried fruit (such as dates and raisins) and beans (like pinto, navy, black, great northern, etc.).
These sources are better absorbed with foods high in vitamin C (such as citrus fruits and juices, berries, broccoli, cantaloupe, peppers, kiwi, tomatoes and potatoes).
A high iron dish that is easy to make is chili. The vitamin C from tomatoes and bell peppers aids in the absorption of iron from the beans. source
+ IRON DEPLETION: WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW 7/06
Why not get tested? What do you have to lose... except your season.
+ DOs & DON'Ts OF SPORTS NUTRITION
+ IRON NEEDS IN ENDURANCE RUNNERS from NC State
+ Track for Teens... and its benefit from estronaut.com
+ Info on Anemia - Iron deficiency is a common problem with female runners.
Article Highlights
Get Tested.... Eat Food High in Iron (Red Meat, Pork Chops, Raisins, Spinach, Apricots, etc.)
Using Iron Supplements??... Take with Vitamin C for best absorption.
Any good health studies or links?? Send 'em in. - Archives of all past stories
VERY IMPORTANT
1. The Coaches STRONGLY suggest that each SF XC runner get a blood test for IRON LEVELS...Make sure to ask for the FERRITIN level with the same test...Teenage girls and especially teenage runners (athletes) are at a greater risk than most...PARENTS--My own daughter was diagnosed with Iron deficiency (anemia) when she was a sophomore at SF...I noticed something was wrong when watching her play BB...It finally dawned on me that she might be low on Iron...I was right...It took more than 6 weeks to get her back on track...
2. Please get plenty of Iron and Calcium daily with their foods...Vitamin C helps absorb the Iron better...Calcium inhibits the Iron absorption when taken at the same time...CAFFEINE is a big NO from the coaches...Especially energy drinks...GOOD OLD FASHION WATER, MILK, A RECOVERY DRINK AFTER PRACTICE, BUT NOT ALL DAY LONG...ONCE IN A WHILE A DIET 7UP OR SPRITE WON'T HURT...That is what the coaches recommend...
3. The body heals and recovers the best during SLEEP...The girls need to get lots of sleep...What more can be said...
Coach John, Tom, and Megan

"Confidence grows if we overcome our tired bodies, running harder when we want to slow down.
With confidence comes character and strength of body, will, and soul.
No one becomes a champion without training hard; one of the reasons there
are so few champions is that when the going is tough the weaker people quit." .... Percy Cerutty
"See if you can give much more attention to the doing than to the result that you want to achieve through it.
Give your fullest attention to whatever the moment presents." .... Eckhart Tolle
"It's not enough that we do our best; sometimes we have to do what's required."
Sir Winston Churchill
