Drank HEED at water station #1 and it burned a hole in my gut.

Not drink anything but water. Probably should have fueled better on bike.

Drank water, walked around for 5 minutes and then found some shade.

Good job!!  I thought the canal swim was a lot of fun too.  THe heed does the same thing to me, so I don't touch it...only water.
