Subject: RE: Water sloshing in my stomach during the run portion??monkeyboy64 - 2009-06-19 12:55 PM It would help to know the distances you race, but I don't see any in your logs. I've had the sloshing before as well, and as the others have said, it's from drinking too much too quickly. For me, it was because I was paranoid about not being well hydrated. If it's a sprint, you really don't need much, if anything, during the race. You are right, I have nothing in my logs. I am fairly new to this site. Also I'm not sure if I'll use the logs. I keep track of my training elsewhere. But I did say in my initial post that the races I have recently done are a sprint and then an olympic. I am also in training for a HIM in late July. I realize that I will have to up my nutrition during the HIM and I am starting to train with that more, but I got nervous about the sloshy stomach in the other two races. I was the most sloshy in the sprint and I only stopped at the first water station. The idea of carrying a water bottle might work, but I hate carrying stuff while I run. I think for now I will just focus on smaller sips at the water stations, and also do this on my training runs when I run by the water fountains. |
