I am constantly surprised that when I do my training sessions at my local pool, there are very few other people apart from myself ,that drink water while they are training.I drink about 1 litre for a 1 1/2 hour session.Do others take in liquids while training or am I an exception?? :cool:

I always drink lots of fluid- I swim early, so I often find that I feel somewhat dehydrated after waking. I keep a 1.5 L bottle at the end of the lane (amongst my toys) and it is usuall 3/4 empty. However, that's for a 90 min. workout- in the summer (in 90+ heat), I drink more than that; but when I only go for an hour, I don't drink that much...
I once read somewhere that the rule of thumb (so, to speak :D ) is to drink until you pee clear...
