  Good stuff, definitely worth a try

  When I was in high school some of my teammates would always use this product and have great races. I thought it was dumb because we weren't running particularly long distances and I always thought GU was for marathoners and stuff. Anyway now I'm in the marathon club at my college and decided I'd buy a pack just to see how my stomach likes it before I actually used it during a race. I ate some before a 5k time trial (about 30 minutes before) and I must say I felt AMAZING before and during the run. I had so much energy and everything was clicking.I was skeptical before but this stuff really does work. I wish I could eat it before training every day but it's too expensive. Also the flavor I got (lemon sublime) I thought was actually pretty tasty and completely bearable.I guess the most important thing to get out of this review would be that GU works for ALL distances; you don't have to be a marathoner or extreme endurance sport guy to enjoy this product. I always thought those guys on my track team were idiots and now I feel like an idiot for not eating the GU before races because it definitely helps.It is also important to note that there's no caffeine in this stuff so NCAA athletes you're good to go.Also one more thing, for those of you guys who eat this stuff on distance runs, don't be a doosh and throw your trash on the ground, just fold it up and put it back where you took it out of!Ver másVer menos

  LOVE This Stuff

  Great taste and provides the energy I need for my long rides.I don't think this flavor is included in the variety packs, as all my riding mates are surprised that I have pineapple and they all want to try it. No complains thus far after about 9 months using it.Ver másVer menos

  Pineapple GU is good to go

  I use GU for long runs and this product works for me. The flavor is ok among all the flavors I have tried and this flavor was on sale so was worth the price.

  Good stuff

  Here are my tips for using1. do not get these on your hands, they have the consistency of mollasses and you'll get sticky fingers2. for long runs such as marathons, be sure to figure out which is your favorite flavors. Some days, you will not have "it" Imean you are struggling, and eating becomes a chore unless you have your favorite flavors. Flavor matters.3. get the cafeinated Gus. It's easy to think "caffeine = heart attack" but in my experience, the caffeine is THE secretingredient. I use lower caffeine Gu's at the beginning of a marathon run, and progess to higher dosed gels towards the finish.If the gel you take doesn't have caffeine, you will not feel any "kick" that people are talking about in these reviews.4. I personally wouldn't pay extra for the Roctane, altho I did buy a case of the pineapple. But in retrospect, I simplycannot tell the difference between regular Gu and the Roctane Gu. I mean if there is a benefit in the performance,it is so subtle and such a small factor compared to things like sleep, state of your legs, your overall state, etc.5. Do not try to wolf these down. When you try to wolf these down while running, you will find the stuff is harderto get down, and your body is working harder. I take a little bit at a time, and actually enjoy the stuff.It takes me about 1/2 mile to finish a packet. No water needed if you take it slow.Ver másVer menos

  Caffeine Free

  I have struggled with cramps when running and using GU with caffeine. Decided to try this caffeine free option and I didn’t have the same cramping problems. I don’t know that it was truly the GU but I’ll stick with it. I was good with the flavor as well as I prefer something fruit flavored.Ver másVer menos

  Obvious boost

  This product is amazing. I take it late in a ride when I'm tired or when I know a hard effort is coming and it always gives me an obviousboost. Expensive, but worth it when you need a boost. No caffeine needed!

  SUPER HEROES TAKE THIS PRODUCT!!!

  If you are looking for an amazing BOOST!! to your performance then this product is the BEST by far! I take it 10 minutes before my run and WOW the results are FANTASTIC!! I warm up for 2 miles easy jog and then stretch for 10 minutes. I then do a few 25 meter sprints. Then I run a 5 or 10K run and I have lots of energy to destroy hills, stairs etc... I am also soo alert and my focus is super SHARP!! this is the best gel product I have EVER taken!! Ps the Pineapple flavour is beautiful and caffeine FREE!!Ver másVer menos

  Simply works!

  Just finished marathon with this new formula gel. Did not hit the wall! My legs usually give up after 30K, but not this time. So I guess this roctane thing really works.

  I like the ones with caffeine

  Gu Roctane is my go to gel for half and full marathons. I like the ones with caffeine. Unfortunately, they upset my tummy. But I love this gel.
