Here’s a question for you people with medical knowledge:
I did a local race in the Severn 3 times and was violently ill the 1st and 3rd time, never done it since.
The 2nd time I was on antibiotics already for a nasal infection and wasn’t ill, I’ve always wondered if that was just luck or would antibiotics give any sort of protection against it?

#Broscience right here.

Along with @d.t, we raced in Belgium last year.

The vast majority of competitors became ill afterwards, with one poor girl ending up in Intensive care (from the river).

I caught something, but nowhere near as bad as others.

Question, did the 10 strong Belgium beers I had afterwards help?

I think so.

Probs nothing to worry about from the 4th time, but the 5th time might be the clincher. :face_vomiting:

Danone already plastering France with their sponsorship. They even have PFP on board and she’s not going near any swimming.

They are going to great efforts to keep the water ‘clean’ apparently

Mostly, they’re crossing their fingers that it stays dry. Do we have details on how the money has been spent? Unless they’ve sealed-up all the outflows for 30 miles upstream, I’m doubtful.

OTOH there was a lot of concern about all the open water sports at Rio 2016, which failed to materialise
