GU Energy Gels are what hikers, runners, and other athletes use to get quick energy, fast.
How do they work? Each gel is 100 calories in the form of carbohydrates, electrolytes, and antioxidants. So they help serve as a fuel source for your body and as well as delaying fatigue.

Congratulations to Shelli! She and her daughter will be able to fuel up as they do their PCT section hikes! Thank you to everyone who entered, and please check out this month’s contest!
My favorite hike is tamarack lake in montana. These would come in so handy for my family. Im alway up for finding new things that are easy to take
Hiking the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu in April to celebrate my 65th! I’ve never hiked anywhere before! Will need all the energy I can get! Would love to try these on my trek, especially since they are a fuel source and delay fatigue! Wish me luck! Thanks for the info!
Would love to win these! These would be great on our trek this summer. Just found your website today and it super helpful. I am trying to prepare for a 10 day trek with our boyscout troop in July in New Mexico. So many great tips and advice. I am really grateful for the information on altitude sickness, my doctor didn’t know what to do and now I can bring information back to her! Thanks for being here 🙂
I want to participate in your Gu contest. Thanks for your YouTube video on preventing blisters when running. I’m going to try your advice in a 10mile run this sunday.
Cheers

In addition to drinking lots of water, GU gel packets have saved me (and others) from suffering heat exhaustion on Arizona trails. GU helps in maintaining critical electrolyte and vitamin/mineral levels. It is quickly absorbed into the bloodstream. Highly recommended.
I’d love to try these on the 6+ mile hikes my friends and I go on every month!
I would love to try these gels! I am just getting into hiking and am planning a couple week backpacking adventure here in Arkansas in May for graduation and these gels would be a great addition! Thanks!
That would b a great item for my Appalachian trail hike (first time) lol I plan o starting in april. Ty 🙂
I backpack with my 32 yrs old daughter (we section hike PCT)..she does CrossFit…I NEED this product!!! + love it 🙂
I have used GU since 1995 when I needed a quick energy boost during offshore personal watercraft endurance races. I now have them as tasty quick and dirty energy needs on the trail and need a replenishment of stock for the Havasupai, AZ adventure planned in spring this year!
It’s winter and I want my mind filled with all things outdoors and summer. The gels would help…..definately.
Seems like the best way to start off a new hiking year…with plenty of energy gel. Thank You…
I have seen the product at REI. I would like to try them. Please sign me up. Thank you!!
Best product out there. Use it often for hiking and biking. Like your reviews.
So will help this guy trying to get ready for the scouting 15 miles hike this summer
I last used the GU Energy Gels when riding my bike for four days on the Great Allegheny Passage. Great for the afternoons when I began to feel hungry but dinner was still a few hours away. A good product.
I would love to win these gels as am backpacking every other weekend in Feb and March! I could really use these and not worry too much about the food I have to pack:) Love the reviews in this site! 🙂
I am hiking part of the Appalachian Trail soon and both excited and scared about it. Extra energy would help me keep up with my experienced partner (I am not!).
Thanks for a great site of information for a beginner…..and I did buy REI from your link.
These are convenient to carry and eat and I would love to win some for my hiking adventures!
Thank you for the great website and for the giveaway.
Have a great weekend!
Please enter me in the GU energy gel giveaways we could really use the product to supply the energy needed for our monthly hikes.
Thanks for the website, we love the gear reviews and the helpful hints for all of us.
Very interested in winning some GU gels! I love to use these for training for triathlons and Spartan races and for backpacking.
Wife and I would love to win the GU Energy Gel. Might help her during the Polar Plunge on Saturday… and any hikes we have coming up.
