Kathy, my sister in law and neighbor totally rocks! She gave me a GU to try for my run, and it totally worked. So today she went to the runner's corner to get more gel's for herself, and picked me up a ton of different things to try. When she picked up such a variety, the clerk made a funny comment about trick or treating! This may sound really strange, but I am so excited to run tomorrow and try one of these! It's like I can just surprise myself in the morning and pick a new one.

I LOVE the Cliff Blocks! Also, try the Chocolate Outrage GU sometime. It tastes like an uncooked brownie. I know, sounds gross -- but it is strangely tasty!
My favorite of those are the blocks and moons. However I do pretty well with solids in my stomach before a run. As far as the "gu" types my favorite is Apple cinnamon-it tastes like the apple pies from McDonald's. I am glad these are working for you! Are you training for something? Miss talking to you.
Thanks Vanessa for the tip, I'll have to try the chocolate one. And yes Karina, I'm going to try to run a 5K. With my back, it's going to be a major challenge. I can only train if I follow strict guildines from my doctor. Which means, it will take me many more months to work up to 3 miles!
For example : I was totally stoked to run Saturday morning, but my back would not allow it. So, that slows me down a lot. :-( But, I'm not going to give up!
