Eating, immediately post-race

Nope.  I came across the line on Saturday, and everyone kept offering me food.  I just wanted a bottle of water and that was it.  The actual smell of them cooking the food made me feel nauseated.  

It took me a couple hours to be able to eat something.  

Not even a little bit. I want a bottle of water and to cool down. Within an hour I'll be starving though, and when it hits, I gotta eat!

I finished a Oly yesterday at 10, we couldn't pick up bikes until 10:30, and I got home around 11:30. Went straight to the fridge for a beer and cold pizza

LOL @ work, that is how I feel.

I try and eat something, but it's usually a struggle.  Sort of graze if I can.  I usually put stuff down just because I should, not because I want to.

I mostly race in Vegas, and you get done with any race distance, and just exhausted, I always see the table of bananas, orange slices, and bagels just sitting in the desert heat.  That, mixed with the lack of appetite, makes eating the last thing on my mind.  It's a shame, becuase I felt like I paid for it, but eating a 100 degree orange or banana?  Blech.  Usually the water is luke warm as well, but what are you going to do?

Usually, but even though they supposedly are good protein, I still won't touch a grub.  GROSS!!

I could eat the arse end out of a dead rhino.

I'm pretty tapped at the end of an OLY, and if it was a hot day I can barely even keep drinking. NOTHING tastes right. Water doesn't do the trick and the Powerades seems to suck moisture out of my tongue. As much as I've needed the fluids my mouth starts to not like them.

Give me an hour or so though and it is ON.  I'll take advantage of whatever I find at the finish line if I can stomach it, but I tend to be BOBOP so there isn't usually much left. When you are DFL the darn spectators have typically eaten your goodies already.
