Not looking so good for the 2016 Olympics. 13 out of 40 US rowers down with "stomach illness" including vomiting and diarrhea after the World Junior Rowing Championships in Rio. Gross, but not really surprising.

"You don't want to see athletes in the boat-park vomiting," Francia said, recounting that the competitor she saw get sick was not an American. One of the U.S. rowers did faint in a dining area, she added."
