Comments about GU Energy Gel 8 pack Nutrition: I always prefer Gu or Roctane bc of the composition, but this flavor is GREAT!!! Finally a flavor I don't dread!! Comments about GU Energy Gel 8 pack Nutrition: Great flavor Comments about GU Energy Gel 8 pack Nutrition: Easy to eat, quick carbs for long runs. Comments about GU Energy Gel 8 pack Nutrition: I've used Gu during runs and half marathons (previously marathons) for many years, and they always provide me with the pick-me-up and nutrition that I need. I'm partial to the Chocolate Outrage and Salted Caramel flavors. Comments about GU Energy Gel 8 pack Nutrition: Good. Comments about GU Energy Gel 8 pack Nutrition: I'm not a big fan of "guing" but sometimes I need a boost on a long run. I can tolerate several of the flavors but the salted caramel is actually good! I guess because real caramel can be gooey and the consistency doesn't bother me as much in this flavor. Comments about GU Energy Gel 8 pack Nutrition: I use gels only when I'm running more than 8 miles. I love having them on hand at the halfway point of my half marathons. I usually keep both caffeine and no caffeine gels on hand, I like to alternate. Comments about GU Energy Gel 8 pack Nutrition: Great flavor and no additives.

Comments about GU Energy Gel 8 pack Nutrition: I use GU for my long runs. I had a hard time finding a flavor I liked because of the consistency. The Salted Caramel has by far been my favorite because it tastes like caramel and has the similar texter as a really creamy smooth caramel.

Comments about GU Energy Gel 8 pack Nutrition: I usually use a gel if I'm running over 10 miles. This one is especially good (salted carmel). Not only does it give me a little burst of energy, it gives me something to look forward too because its so yummy! I usually take a gel every 4 or 5 miles after the first 10. Change it up a bit with flavors!

Comments about GU Energy Gel 8 pack Nutrition: My previous favorite flavor of GU Energy Gel was the Vanilla Bean, which is still pretty good, but my new favorite is the Espresso Love. It may have been psychological, but the benefit of the 40 mg of caffeine was key in my last marathon. It wasn't my best preparation, training-wise, for a race, but on race day everything was clicking and I ended with a PR! I give the Espresso Love some credit for my stellar performance as I felt energized after each gel.

Comments about GU Energy Gel 8 pack Nutrition: I'm a distance runner and average about 7 to 9 miles in a single run. Not a lot compared to others, but I'm getting there. Gu Energy gel works great. I take one before my run, and another around my 5th mile (about 45-50 minutes in) and that does the trick. The only complaint is that it tastes terrible. I got Tri Berry and Mandarine orange, it was just awful. But honestly, I've tried other gels, and they don't work as great. It's a very small price to pay for good sustainable energy. Just wash it down with some water and you're good. No after taste at all.

Comments about GU Energy Gel 8 pack Nutrition: I purchased these Gu Tri-Berry Gel Packs last week to use while training for a half-marathon. Using standard shipping, it arrived within 2 days; VERY impressive! That same week, I used it on a 6-mile run. I took one about 10 minutes prior to my run and another at about 40 minutes, which was at about mile 4. It was close to the end of my run, but I wanted to see if my energy was maintained, and it was. I completed miles 5 and 6 with no problems, along with proper hydration. I cannot say enough about the taste and texture of this product. I recently tried a similar product, which was WAY too pasty, like gel toothpaste. Gu, however left no heavy aftertaste, and no remaining filmy nastiness; it went down clean and smooth. I also had no side affects like cramping or anything. I will definitely be purchasing more of these, and probably try other flavors.

Comments about GU Energy Gel 8 pack Nutrition: I take one Gu 25 minutes before my long runs and one every 40 minutes during my run. The peppermint is my favorite flavor, salted caramel is my close second favorite. They are easy to carry in a pocket and take with a little water on the go. I have tried other brands and nothing compares to the flavor and energy I get from Gu.
