What will you eat before your Port to Pub swim?
Trialling your race day nutrition
2016 seemed to speed past! Before we know it, we'll be on Leighton Beach and swimming to Rotto. As your training sessions start to increase, now is the perfect time to trial your race day nutrition from a performance perspective, but also to ensure you don't experience any gastro upset or 'surprises' on race day.
At Port to Pub, we try and support and champion our local businesses, and we were delighted to be able to involve sports nutrition products manufacturer Bindi Nutrition in our 2017 event. Bindi Nutrition is based Busselton in the South West of Western Australia.
Swimmers will be very glad to hear Subiaco Sports Massage Clinic has returned as a sponsor of the 2017 Port to Pub and will once again be providing free sports massage services at the finish line to work through those post-swim aches, as well as discounted treatments in the lead-up to the event.
We’re thrilled that Austral Fisheries has jumped back on deck to support the Port to Pub swim in 2017. Austral Fisheries is one of Australia's largest integrated commercial fishing companies wiht interests in boht deep sea fishing and at sea prawning.
We are so pleased to announce Olympic Gold Medalist Libby Trickett will compete in the 2017 Port to Pub and raise awareness for R U OK? She’ll take on the swim in March as part of a team of four.
We hope you have had a nice Christmas break and are now raring to get back to training. You have 10 weeks to go! Here is your Hotel Rottnest Port to Pub Training Guide to help keep you motivated and to give you some guidance in the lead up to the swim!
HOW TO USE THE GUIDE
Many of you will be very excited – maybe a little nervous – to hear you’ll be swimming alongside open water swimming champion and dual Olympian Jarrod Poort next March.
22-year-old Jarrod has signed up to compete in the 25 km ultra-marathon and is back into full training to prepare himself for the tough event. He’ll be sponsored by Subiaco Sports Massage Clinic.
Swimmer’s World
We are four months out from the 2017 Port to Pub swim. If you have been too busy to get down to the pool to start training, it’s not too late. Now is a perfect time to round up a few mates at a Christmas party and make a pact with each other to do the Port to Pub! Register now and you have until 06 March 2017 to get everything in order and update your details.
Getting through the festive period
Christmas Day will not make you fat. However, a December of Christmases will!
Everyone is worried about what they eat between Christmas and New Year’s Day, when really, what we should be worried about is what we eat between New Years and Christmas Day!
