Works well for some quick energy when find yourself on the NOBO hill @I-81 on the AT after an already looong day and need to lie to yourself and say "I love backpacking!" Of course everyone's tastes are different. I had never tried any of the berry flavors and for me they are a bit sweet. But hey, they digest rapidly with a little caffine for a quick boost. As my old friend Ester would say "What it is, what it is!" I think she meant "It is what it is", but I never had the heart to correct her. Maybe she did it on purpose...

GU is a great product, however, I was not aware that every flavor in the Multi-Pack except Strawberry-Banana has caffeine. Highly disappointed.

Great snack, even when not training

4 years ago

I live on this stuff, even when not running long distances. It is a great snack if I need to dash out somewhere before breakfast. I live in deep snow country, and I keep a handful of these (along with granola bars) in the car for emergencies. On a long distance run, I put a few in my pocket and have one every few miles. Vanilla is my favorite, followed by Salted Caramel.

Backcountry booster

6 years ago

Though remembering to take a small ziplock bag for trash, the GU was awesome for maintaining my energy as I climbed and descended the Colorado mountain sides. I used these as the anchor of my diet while continuing regular meals as time permitted.

great for section hiking

6 years ago

It’s a must have for me on section hikes. I have used on multiple hikes really helps get those extra miles in at the end of the day. Over all improves stamina on every hike. On average I use 2 a day. Love them.

Gel are great, shipping has problems

3 years ago

Gels are great (I have used them before). Twice I ordered the 24 pack, shipping sent me a single gel. Twice. Huge bag shows up, with a single gel in it. REI has credited me both times, but I had to go buy other stuff for my race. Very frustrating.

GU Great

9 years ago

I've used these in a 25K and half marathon as well as training. No stomach upset (another popular brand gel does bother me a little), even when I don't have enough water to properly wash them down.

Extra Energy when you really need it FAST.

4 years ago

When I fainted while cycling, I learned that hypoglycemia is no laughing matter. These GU gels seemed to be MSRP everywhere but by buying at REI I get dividend.

These things taste great, and I feel like they help me with long runs. I've also used them during marathons and halfs. Good stuff!
