Do you count watersports as water?

I'm curious as to whether liquids consumed during watersports should count towards my 8 glasses of water a day?

Does anyone else record this? I try to keep my mouth closed when I go under but sometimes it takes me by suprise and I swallow a big mouthful.

    I'd try not to ingest suprise mouthful when you down as there are a host of diseases that can be transmitted by water bourne pathogens.

    I was more concerned with the crabs. The beach is littered with them.

    Still doesn't make me wanna stick a straw in it and sip away :sick:

    ETA: Urine is sterile until it reaches the urethra.

    If the word isn't spelled with w-a-t-e-r, i don't count it. I don't care what all the other liquid cheerleaders say. Only water is water. I don't even count agua. If it's not water, GTFO.

    So it is water then? Or do you spell watersports differently to me?

    If you count water swallowed during swimming, you should also probably count water you swallow when you're brushing your teeth, or in the shower.

    Also, be sure to count the spit you swallow when you swallow spit.

    Note, I said spit, anything else has other nutrients i hear.

    If you're getting water in your mouth during water sports, you're doing them all wrong. It should be going up your nose, flipping your eyelids inside out, and in 1 ear and out the other.

    I wondered about this when I was bodyboarding the other day. Ended up swallowing loads, but as it's seawater it's probably dehydrating so definitely SHOULDN'T count. I do pee an awful lot when I've been in the sea though...... Sorry TMI :embarassed:

    Erm.... you may need to log the loads you swallowed as well.... just to be sure.

    Perhaps I should have written "lots" or "gallons"
