As a practicing Muslim, in the month of Ramadaan, I'm required to fast. Meaning no food or water from dawn to sundown. I'm wondering if because of this I might as well abandon all hope of doing anything in the career of Swimming. I do plan on doing CrossFit to stay in shape, but nothing can replace quality swimming.
So do I really have no chance of making it anywhere, such as the Olympic because of this? Or is there still some bleak of hope?

Also, if you are training/competing at the level to get you to the Olympics, then your coach should have access to nutritionists who can build a diet to meet your religious needs.
