So I'm training for the Great Bay swim (4.4mi) in June which is a no-support race as far as I know, how do folks fuel during a swim like this, or do you not? This is my first OW event over 2 miles and I get HUNGRRRRY. Thanks!

  • Couple of ideas: slip some energy gels into your suit; make a paste of an endurance drink powder, wrap it in something, slip that in suit as well. I couldn't do that distance w/o refueling and rehydrating. Others can. Check to see whether there are rehydrating stations on the course? (I see Chaos just posted...) Good luck!
