Thank you for posting this article. I am going to try packing honey next time!

I think its the consistency. at the point where i need energy I already have cotton mouth and adding GU to the mix…doesn’t do it for me.
Oddly enough, GU with a Sour Patch Kids chaser usually get my saliva flowing a little more to get the GU down the hatch. They aren’t easy to bring along on a distance run though!!

So I chose to try jelly beans and chews/bloks instead. Unfortunately I don’t think my jelly beans were enough during my half marathon, so I’m going to try another flavor of GU this season. People tell me it was just the flavor I tried that didn’t work for me. We’ll see.
