A wise man once sent me a list of do's and dont's for the 4.4 Mile Chesapeake Bay Swim. Regarding dinner the night before and the breakfast, it was "Eat something you have eaten 100x or more without incident."
I generally keep the food pretty simple, ie bagel, dry cereal, etc... power bars and other granola/snack/breakfast-type bars (and the occasional plain ham sandwich) during the meet... just enough to keep me from starving and provide some energy, and not so much it feels like I ate and exercised with bad timing...
i don't do bananas at all :banana:
