Meet Our Sponsors: K&L Gates
We are delighted that global law firm, K&L Gates, is once again a presenting sponsor of the Hotel Rottnest Port to Pub swim.
IT’S ALMOST RACE DAY!
Three more sleeps! You will be so excited/nervous, and getting up so early, that you probably won’t sleep much Friday night - so you will be taking part in the Port to Pub before you know it!
Make sure you are prepared for any weather and ocean conditions, and for a longer-than-expected swim. Then, on the day, when it’s beautiful weather, calm conditions, and you get there in sub 5 hours, you will have even more reason to celebrate at the Hotel Rottnest.
Swimmer Nutrition Tips with David Bryant
Home stretch now, here we go!
Assuming you have taken all my nutrition advice on board and in particular have TRIALLED all your pre/during/post-race nutrition in training, then you are one step ahead of the pack.
Also use it as a little confidence boost pre-race when the nerves to start to creep in that you have prepared and fuelled your body as well as you could have to make it to the swim across the PUB.

Swimmer Nutrition Tips with David Bryant
You wouldn’t try a new swim stroke on race day, so why try new foods on race day?
The Port to Pub is rapidly approaching so now is the time to start thinking about the foods you’ll be trying the days before, the night before, the morning of and during the iconic swim.
Race Week
- Don’t change your diet dramatically in the week leading up to race day.
