Traveling for tournaments or competition is part of all athletes’ lives. Success in sport depends on many factors, including strength, skill, mental readiness, adequate sleep, and proper nutrition. It is important to adjust everything from eating and fueling, to training and competition. It is also essential to plan ahead for a one-time competition or an all-day event. Whether you focus on a single athletic event with minimal travel or get on a bus or plane for an out-of-state or international competition, here are some general recommendations to ensure you are ready to do well at your destination.
1. Plan ahead and get organized.
2. While traveling, don’t confuse boredom with hunger.
3. Do your research to identify shopping and eating options at your travel destination.
4. If you plan on eating out, check out local food listings, such as local harvest and Edible Communities.
5. Always carry a water bottle and stay hydrated.
