That sounds like a very balanced diet.

I introduced pre sailing bacon sarnies to LSC when I was canteen mgr - they are now our best seller. Always have Mars Bars and if they are lucky they get a curry after sailing.

Hope the new canteen manager keeps up the standards!!!

A good breakfast is essential.  If a weekend event you will probably be staying in a B&B so eat as much breakfast as you can to get your money's worth.  During the racing if back to back try bananas, plenty of energy and each one comes in its own waterproof biodegradable wrapper, so you can chuck it over the side without too many complaints.  After racing beer, beer, beer then eat whatever you fancy, but I find that curries, steaks and a good old British roast dinners are best.

Failure to eat a bacon roll before racing is protestable isn't it?
