I know we have swimmers with impressive open water resumes...
I would like some feedback on calorie intake during long swims... seems to me taste of some of these gels, bars and drinks is critical, however the calories provided by some of these gel packs and bars ~ 100 calories tends to be on the low side.
what kind of caloric intake are swimmers attempting on their long swims?
...and good luck to chaos - we're cheering for you!
thanks bill,
my plan is 285 - 300 cals/hr taken as 3 feeds per hr (20 min intervals)
each feed is 95-100 cals in 11oz (easy enough to chug and keep my pit stops short..."mix" concentrated so for each feed:
5 oz "MIX" + 6 oz hot water added just before feeding.
