I've already brought a dozen of GU energy gel from OverXXnder.
The price is excellent and there are several flavours for selection.
Thanks Harry and tyler.
WalkBreaks,
The composition of energy gel is different from different brands and you can check the nutrition information from their websites to make comparison.
Although a chocolate bar provides more energy than a pack of energy gel, it is more difficult to be digested because of the high fat content. The size of chocolate bar is bigger than a pack of gel. Besides, it will melt in your pocket/arm wallet and you can imagine the clumsiness of eating a melted chocolate bar (without water) during a race.
However, it is just a personal choice and if you find eating chocolate bar or candy makes you feel good during the race, then just go ahead. I think there is no right or wrong.
For electrolyte replenishment, I think sport drink at water station can get the job done. |
