> 3 dayThe ease of use and the results within a few minutes keep me using these gels. I ride bicycles hard (20+ Mph) for 2-3 hours at a time. These gels help a quick recovery during the ride.

Greater than one weekIve been using these for whenever I go on a run longer than 8 miles. The taste isnt amazing, but its the best Ive tried so far, and I love the little extra caffeine boost! I take one a while before starting the run, and then usually take another one about halfway through, before I start losing energy. Dont put the empty packet into your pocket though, because its not really empty and will harden to the inside of your pocket and be a total pain to clean out. You just have to carry it with you until you come across a trash can.

> 3 dayI burned out on Gu a long time ago and for years avoided it. When I tried the French Toast Gu it reignited my love (and use) of gu. The flavor is unique (not all fruity or vanilla or chocolate) but not heavy. It has a yummy, buttery maple syrup flavor that isnt too sweet. Right now I alternate between French Toast gu and Toasted Smore GU and I actually look forward to taking nutrition during runs now. Perfect for long runs (pre or during nutrition).

> 3 dayI hadn’t tried these and have now tried many flavors and this is just beyond delicious if you love mint chocolate. Super helpful when you need energy on a bike ride or hike.

> 3 dayI never really can tell whether these gels work. Is it all psychological, or can your body really use those extra 100 calories, now? Regardless, for 8+ mile runs, I tend to use a gel every 5 miles. I know that the caffeine gives me a mental pick-me-up toward the end of a run or race. I tend to alternate caffeine and no-caffeine gels, and I make sure I have one for mile 22-23 during a marathon. This caramel macchiato is a pleasant enough flavor, but I have to admit that I buy whatever is the best price point. This last time, it was... caramel macchiato!

> 3 dayMy husband and I used these when we cycle. Its delicious and definitely helps with a boost of energy and to prevent a charlie horse. We prefer this flavor over all the others. We feel the others are too sweet.
