The 10km open water swim on now is both the stuff of nightmares and awe inspiring. I never knew swimmers had feed stations! Eating while swimming! Mind blown.

How do you think people get across the Channel in cold water without fuelling? I know people who’ve taken over 20 hrs to cross, that’s a heavy required food intake. I also know of a Japanese swimmer whose food stops involved treading water eating bowls of noodles - with chopsticks!

Honestly, I'd never thought about it. It just not something that crossed my mind. I guess you learn something every day.
