Social media component to keeping people motivated. You know, this was interesting. So today i started off the day thinking its important just to find motivation, just to see other people succeeding but as i started looking, i found research that shows its more than that. And its actually finding people who will keep you accountable and then communicating what youre doing and so basically, if you dont post that, hey, i got my workout in today, you have a group of people say, why didnt you get your workout in today . And i am living proof. On january 17th, i was with softball moms and they were talking about the fit bit challenge. I bought a fit bit the next day and my daughter too and now every day if i dont get the step, i know theyre looking. Exactly. Thats how it works. It keeps me motivated. Wins. I think she puts it on the dog the house. Just kidding. Thats interesting. After the race this weekend . Well, i think it revolves around this concept. And so youve worked out, gotten to the point where youre in good shape and ready for the big event, your race. Find your friends and find the people who you trained or knew they worked out and start your own group. And the same thing youre involved with, everybody put up what youre doing for the day. You dont have to just rib people but its really about just the accountability. And its the typing it in. When you type in, okay, i did the this. And now, hey, guys, im publishing this to you, it has a different effect. And if youre competitive at all, you want to the stay involved. You want to beat them. Yeah, im with you on that. Thanks, jonathan. Actually, were going to go to dan. Hey, good stuff there. All right, if theres a team in the nhl that needs a win tonight, i think we all know it, its the lightning. Even with two points f they get not make up big ground in standings because its a busy night in the league. Just about every team around the bolts are playing as well. Thats the penguin, the bruins, the red wing, watching them all. And after tonight, the bolts hit the road for two games against two teams just mentioned. So we have arrived at the critical stage for getting wins at home. A place the lightning have dropped two of their last three games. Go out there and get off to a good start and try to build on some positives. Obviously were not happy with the way we played last game. So just going to, you know, not necessarily the outcome, wins or losses, but just playing the right way and kind of getting back to the good habits and doing the right things. You want to take advantage of next game for playing back to back on the road. Which is tough. And you know the last trip we had, we came out with zero points. Its here, the crack of the bat. A welcomed sound. Rays players showing up before the official beginning of spring training. And thats great news. Not only for rays fans but for the manager who feels more confident heading into his Second Season in charge. And now one thing that cash feels better about this year is the pace at which the manager must make decisions during games. It happens fast. And i think, you know, i admitted that the first month of the year last year, that you can think its fast but its faster once you get out there. So just to be more prepared for some of those situations that arise during the game. And off the field, or in the clubhouse, the communication just doesnt stop. And as expected, the rays did sign a pitcher today. Ryan webb to a oneyear deal. And he is a hometown guy. Clearwater guy. And hes kind of bounced around a little bit and here on a one thats got to be cool when they come home. Spring training, just to get back into it. Its such a long season when you look at it. Yeah, it is. And i watch a lot of mlb and look at what the National Experts say about the team. They are high on the team. They are really positive.

And today 8 on your side has answers. Joining us now is a registered abigail. Thank you for being here. Thank you so much. You hear about carbing up. Is that something you should be doing if youre running this weekend . Well, it depends on what race youre running in. The shorter runs like the 5k, its not really necessary. More were talking about carb loading or carbing up, its eating more carbs prior to the race. So carbs are the biggest source of fuel to run with. Thats what our body uses. But misconceptions that you want to do it the night before. Really the best time would be to start now. Two to three days because its not going your body is not just going to the immediately get all of it. And you dont want to have a huge giant meal the night before that can cause stomach upset and not help you out at all. The best time is to slightly increase the carbs starting today or tomorrow. And what could you eat right before the race to stay full and feel satisfied for duration . Absolutely. Thats a great question. A couple races, and like toast, peanut but ther and banana is a great combination because you get whole grain, the carbs from the banana and the toast and the Peanut Butter helps satisfy you for a longer period. And oatmeal is a great idea. And the night before, people think as pasta or pizza but also potato, whole grains. You dont want to get too much. And do we need to eat more after exercising, especially that distance . See, thats another great question. The best thing you can do right afterward, get a giant glass of water or after the race, they give you the water bottles. Drink the whole thing and then quick recovery food like a bah that or piece of fruit. You dont need to eat much more afterwards. Maybe just have exactly. And afterward, i mean think of having a great full balanced meal but you dont need to go crazy. All right, all good advice. And now over to josh. Standing on the sideline, you dont need to carb up, right .

And then a few clouds building into the afternoon hours. Of sunshine through the day and topping out in the low 70s there. And we are looking at clear skies across the tampa bay area. Thats going to stay with us through tonight. And no change is coming through this evening. And comfortable temperatures really for us. You may want a light sweat for youre out late this evening. But overall, shouldnt be too bad. And we start off the day similar to this morning. Typical temperatures for february, mid50s. Mostly sunny. So you may want a light jacket to begin with because we warm up quickly into the afternoon hours. And we will top out in the low to mid70s tomorrow. And a northeast breeze, still staying with us. So clouds from the east coast of florida but not going to be seeing any showers with the clouds. Saturday morning, beginning the day in the mid50s. Great start to your weekend. If youre headed out to run in the gasparilla distance classic, 50s are good temperatures for the runners. Sunny saturday, warming up quickly. Winds will still be out of the east. But by sunday, the winds shift more southeasterly and that helps to warm us up. Near 80 degrees. Really warming and notice, still dry. Clear skies to begin with on your sunday. And heres where some changes move in. So you can see High Pressure in place tall the way through the weekend. Thats going to keep our temperatures warm and keep us dry.
