The ninth annual Fodderstack * 10K Race is scheduled to be run * j April 18. Many Rappahannock resij

dents, as well as those from other areas, are busy training to get their bodies in shape for the “Big Race.”

Eating special foods before an | athletic competition won’t improve performance, but choosing some foods instead of others may help prevent a poor performance. A sample menu might include a bowl of sliced bananas and cereal, two slices of whole wheat bread, toasted, with jam, and an eight ounce glass of skim milk. These foods are high in carbohydrates and low in fats.
