Sleep

6am practice. 8am lifting. 5am bus time. All reasons why, as a track athlete, the “all nighter” is out of the question. The average person requires about 8 hours of sleep per night. An athlete needs at least this much in accommodation for muscle recovery and general exhaustion. Time management plays a crucial role in the success of college athletes. Much like eating habits, sleeping habits play a large role in how an athlete may perform. Marking the time to sleep as well as engaging in all of the other activities during your average day can be a tricky task. When you are tired and under-rested, your body is at its most vulnerable. A lack of sleep can hinder the bodies recovery after a workout, and will also leave you ill-prepared for the next, thus increasing the chance of injury two fold. Track coupled with a college workload can provide a killer schedule. This means that on top of being a hard worker both on and off the track, athletes must have good time management skills. It is hard enough to do well with one of the two, but in order to do well in both, athletes must be well rested. Whether it’s knowing when to get ready for an event, or knowing where you have gaps in your schedule to fill up with work so that you can get to bed early, athletes need to have further discipline in order to protect their bodies, and succeed in both competition and academics.
