Help! I swam my first open water 5K this past weekend and was significantly slowed by a recurrent foot cramp along the bottom of my right foot especially affecting my big toe. I could stretch it out and go on but it would happen again 10-15 minutes later. I have had this in the pool from time to time but thought it was from pushing off the wall. Any thoughts on future prevention of this?
Thanks for the advise:)

I have the same problem when I do long distance. I am training for a 10k and my last mile I get them bad. But I also found to eat a banana before helps cause of the potassium to fight the lactic acid build up
