Description

A small serving of fast energy. Each gel delivers 22 to 23 grams of carbs from maltodextrin and fructose, with some sodium and potassium. The gel is fairly thick, so many runners take a sip of water with it.

Made for refuelling on the move. You use it during long runs, marathons and trail runs where you need to top up your energy. You notice it most in the last hour, when your reserves run low and your pace would otherwise drop.

Not sure? Choose this gel if you prefer small servings more often over one big one. Want more carbs per gel or an extra kick? Look at a bigger gel or the caffeinated version.

Caffeine-free, vegan and gluten-free. So it's fine for an evening run too.

Why GU?

During a long trail you don't want to doubt your nutrition. You want a gel you know, that fits easily in your vest and that you can grab at any moment. That's exactly why we carry GU at Trail.NL.

GU makes small gels in lots of flavours, with and without caffeine. The Roctane line adds extra sodium and amino acids for ultras and long, hard days. With the Hydration Tabs you top up fluid and salt along the way.

For us GU is above all a trusted choice: plenty of variety in flavour, easy to dose and a brand that has been making gels for endurance athletes since the early nineties.
