Has anyone done the Miami swim (Nike Miami)? I would like to sign up for this ast my first 10K. I called the organizing company yesterday and they were very nice, but not very knowledgeable about the race. Any insights from anyone who has done it? The woman I talked to thought it was a 5 lap course but wasn't sure. Also, this would be my first 10K. Can you eat during it? I was thinking of bringing a gel or two, but without water to wash it down that might be kinda yucky. I don't know how that works on a long swim. I have a really fast metabolism, and after a couple hours of exercise I pretty really hungry and sluggish if I don't eat something. thanks for any advice.

evmo - thanks for the links to your race reports.
both positives and negatives for this nike swim in miami.
seems like a very long and boring 10K swim - 6 laps worth.
posters had me for breakfast when I gave a thumbs-up for an out-and-back 10K at the pensacola - gulf breeze bridge.
