Traveling for a Swim and Airport Security
I'm traveling this weekend for a swim, and I'm a bit concerned about getting some of my stuff through airport security. It's a short weekend, and only a 5k swim, so I'm not planning on checking a bag. But, I would like to bring a bottle of carbo pro powder in a bottle, and some recoverite for after the swim. How worked up about all of that will security get? Everything else, I think I should be able to get through without any hassle, but these bottles, I'm less sure about.

Gels + 1/2 dozen stainless steel bottles = bag search.
I always opt out of the full body scanner... its all a bunch of security theater bullshit anyway.
...anything worth doing is worth overdoing.
My bottles are plastic, and I won't be traveling with more than 3, so it sounds like I'll be okay.
Thanks.

Good deal. I didn't have any trouble getting through this weekend, thankfully.
Wear it

I borrowed some from a guy who either brought a small container with him, or bought it there. I bought sunscreen after I had traveled. For a longer swim, I'd probably check a bag and not have as much to worry about.

My little OW backpack always gets poked and prodded, and they don't care that there's tubes of zinc, eye drops and a really phallic looking thermometer in it. I check luggage when I'm taking all those little baggies of white powder.
