Some time ago I was lucky enough to take delivery of several boxes of Vita Coco, generously donated by Hugh Thomas, the UK brand manager.
Now that the distance of my training swims has increased, these individual cartons are really coming into their own. Swims of 8km, or even a speed session of 3km like today, all carried out in a warm indoor pool, dehydrate you more than you would realise. Replacing that fluid quickly and in a healthy way is vital for recovery. Having something which does this and tastes good too is a real bonus. Vita Coco certainly seems to work for me.
