As the start date of the Commonwealth Games creeps ever nearer, many sports men and women are gearing themselves up for rigorous training, plenty of rest, and of course lots of drinking water. We caught up with our pal Mary Cohen, captain of the British fencing team, to see how she fits 8 glasses into her daily routine.
8am: To the gym for a workout- I always take a bottle with me, which I can fill up from the plumbed in water cooler on site. It’s important to hydrate both before and after exercising.
12pm: Lunch- a light sandwich, a fruit smoothie, and another big glass of water. It just makes me feel so much better when I drink it!
2pm: In the library looking for some Italian language books, which I’m also taking classes in. With so much travelling, it’s useful to know another language.
5pm: Training- this is where the hardcore water-drinking begins, and I need to make sure I continue sipping throughout the session.
To find out how Mary and the rest of team GB do in the games this year, or for more information about our plumbed in water cooler service, please do get in touch and one of our team will be on hand to anger any questions you may have.
