I may be wrong, but I don't see where any of the gels really sets themselves apart from the others based on a nutritional standard


I been quiet in here, been getting some runs in here and there but mostly 5k-10k stuff. Next race is a 10k so feel like I have been slacking, need to ramp back up for good

A lot of runners around here have been on the spring energy gels, supposedly all natural so the nutrition is better. Looks to be about half the price of Maurten, thought y'all may be interested. (I have never tried either of them, only Gu and SIS) I will order some spring before my next longer race, I just don't use them much for training. I do know some of the spring are way more calories than just your standard 100 cal gel (Speednut is like 235 cals)

Speaking of gels, I couldn't help myself. I ordered a 6-pack of the new GU Hoppy Trails gels. It comes with a stainless steel pint glass, so worst case I have 6 terrible tasting GUs and something to drink beer from for $15.
