SubscribeI’ve found that in the mornings during my 1.5hr-ish swims, that my stomach is most sensitive to what I’ve put in it recently. Recently may be the night before if I ate late or a lot, or may just be whatever I ate before hopping in the pool, but something about being horizontal and rocking back and forth for 90ish minutes puts my nutrition choices to the test.
I’ve decided to use this situation as a vehicle for testing race and training nutrition. Seems logical right: if you’re frequently in conditions that challenge your gut, use those conditions to test substances that you may or may not tolerate well on race day.
I’ve started a page to track my research and happily share it with you in the hopes that you may find it useful too. The page is here. Bookmark it and revisit it often as I’ll just be updating it as I go without a lot of fanfare.
