You know, your mom was right after all – failing to plan is planning to fail.

When you’re short on time and your days are hectic, plan ahead! Prepare a travel pack with snacks and beverages that support your performance eating plan. Items that travel easy and meet the nutritional needs of an athlete are trail mix (nuts, dried fruit, & seeds), fresh fruit & pre-cut vegetables (shop the salad bar), low fat string cheese, yogurt, and bagel with nut butter. Hydrating beverages to include in your travel pack include water, sports drink, electrolyte supplement water, and 100% fruit juice.
