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!

    Thanks SO much for the suggestions guys, I have been taking GUs during practice swims but I wasn't sure if I was nutty to think I could do this during the swim. :) It's a different ballgame than running with a GU in your pocket! I'll test out the GU in the cap vs suit. Thanks for the heads up on the fuel boats too, those aren't mentioned on the website.
