Clean your water bottle

I got violently sick on Tuesday night starting about 11pm. I used the three hour rule to figure out what I ate three hours before. I was working out, drinking from the water bottle I have in the workout room. I hadn't cleaned this water bottle for at least six months.

When my wife checked she saw the cap was full of mold. What the mold was eating, I do not know.

I'm so careful to clean my cycling water bottles after every use and replace them every year. I find it hard to believe I forgot to do the same thing for the water bottle in my workout room.

Clean ALL your water bottles regularly. Replace them every year.
