Any typical Carbohydrates will do so try something like:

Starchy Or Sugary Foods e.g.

• Breads

•Cereals

•Starchy vegetables

•Legumes

•Rice

•Pastas

•Cookies

But if i were you i wouldn't eat cookies as they have a lot of fat in them so they aren't such a good race material!

Good Luck for the race !

As far as my knowledge goes,in childhood ,when we feel any type of weakness,moms generally give us clucose .It is high source of carbohydrates.Therefore runners need this item before undertaking any race.

In softball when a runner gets to the base before the fielders get the ball is called a what?

I guess if you were to call it something it would be called advancing bases, or if the coaches were talking about the runner it would be called advancing the runner.


A pop fly is bobbled by the outfielder and the runner takes off before he has control of the ball is it out?

The runner would be out if he does not return to the base before the fielder throws it to the base. Runners may advance from their base as soon as the ball is touched by a fielder. In this case, the runner would not be out.


If the bases are loaded with one out and the batter hits a ground ball - which hits his runner who is going from 1st to 2nd - does the runner on third advance to score?

I would say the runner is called out (would be Out #2) and the runner on third could advance to score. However, if there were two outs, the runner would be called out (Out #3) and therefore, the runner on 3rd would not be able to score (unless of course he crossed home plate before the runner got hit by the ground ball, then it would count)
