Gulp and Go is an easy method by which open-water swimmers and triathletes consume during a race. The competitors just take the gel or the water at the feeding point, “gulp” them down, and swim on immediately without losing pace.
This technique truncates nutrition breaks and maintains the pace. It requires precise timing, effective teamwork with the support team, and the ability to swallow while exerting oneself. Gulp and Go is practiced to enable the swimmer to sustain energy and fluids during lengthy swim intervals, where seconds count.
