5.0 out of 5 stars This probably saved me during the marathon.
In a nutshell: Energy gel that keeps you going when going gets you tough. Well, until your knees give out or something.What it is: It's an energy gel formulated for endurance athletes (never mind that not a lot of us who use the products like these will ever win a New York Marathon or something; if you participate, you're an athlete, right?) I've got the Chocolate Outrage version, which has 32g of mixture containing various carbs, amino acid, and rather marginal amount of caffeine. The price comes down to roughly $1 per pack, which might be a bit hard to swallow (no pun intended).What it's like: It's a chocolatey paste that's easy to squeeze out and suck on from the pouch while running. It recommends you to drink water while eating this; I recommend the same (and try for water instead of sports drink; water works better for washing this down). I used this for my first (and last?) marathon, at the recommended pace of one pack 15 minutes before the race, and every 45 minutes of activity... it was cut closer to an hour than 45 minutes, as it does take some time to get absorbed to your body. Thanks to it, I was able to finish the marathon despite my body basically refusing to run the last few miles. If nothing else, I had the energy to go further, if not the joints. And that's probably due to my inadequate training; this is no miracle worker in that it lets you do things you normally wouldn't do. Or maybe it does... it's just that having the energy to do things doesn't translate to having the physical capacity to run ridiculous distances.Does it work?: I think so. But it doesn't seem to have replenished any electrolytes... so I guess you should use sports drink with this, after all.In conclusion: these packs work wonders in keeps you going in the energy department--follow the instruction and I'm sure you won't bonk halfway through. Don't forget to train, though!
5.0 out of 5 stars Good Gu
I’ve used this sort of product for years; the flavor is (subjectively) good and the caffeine is a nice extra on some runs. On the downside the top is tear off without the attachment some other products use, so it requires a careful tear on the run to avoid littering.
5.0 out of 5 stars Yummy!
This is probably one of the best Gu flavors. The texture is a bit thicker than the tradition fruit flavored Gu packets, but it’s. 10/10 for me. I only used this flavor of Gu for my half marathon and it gave me ample energy while keeping me satiated during my race. Will repurchase this product again!
5.0 out of 5 stars My favorite gels!
I love these they taste amazing! This is such a good deal too compared to purchasing them at a brick and mortar store. I highly, highly recommend.
4.0 out of 5 stars Needs the Litter Leash Like the Competition
Great product, does what it says on the label, but tearing off the top leaves you with a tiny piece of trash that's likely to end up in nature, rather than in the trash. The competition has a better package design.
5.0 out of 5 stars Favorite Flavor!
This flavor is my favorite GU flavor. It’s pretty thick in consistency, but not so thick that you cannot get every last drop out of each packet. The packets are nice and compact so I can toss them in my pocket while mountain bike riding (for longer rides). I find that if I take one of these before each ride, it doesn’t take as long for my body to get into its rhythm. GU is quite sticky, however, so I recommend pausing your ride to partake as you’ll find they’re easier to manage that way. If you choose to take one while riding, the top is quite I easy to open with two hands. I also find the mid-ride energy boost just enough to get me through while not being so much I can’t come down after a ride. Great product.
5.0 out of 5 stars This stuff is amazing! But expensive
I've been using GU for 12 years and it is a great product. I started using while running marathons. Perfect to keep you going. The chocolate outrage is my preferred flavor. The only downside is the price...it used to be about $28-$30 a box and now it's nearly $40.
5.0 out of 5 stars Good flavor and easy to bring along and consume!

I never had gels while running marathons. I was suggest GU Energy Gel n I’m so happy I tried them! Super yummy and gave me the energy I needed it.Will definitely buy again.Great Product
Surprisingly pleasant for a chocolate gel
Wasn't sure about this flavour (I already like/use GU products) but after reading a review that said they were good, I went for it.The reviewer was right, they are actually very nice on the palate and as usual are good for their main purpose of keeping me upright and moving!
Easy and reliable
