What do you guys find is best to eat before a swim meet?

  • I've eaten just about anything I want and not experienced any bad effects. I prefer to be slightly full rather than hungry. Especially during long meets where there isn't a lot of opportunity to eat much during the meet. I ate a huge breakfast (at IHOP) last weekend about 2 hours before doing the postal 3000 and had one of my best swims ever (dropped 2 min from last year's time).
