[QUOTE="Fallenstar, post: 213686, member: 36659"] Well I have tried the lot in quick release stuff, Lucozade blows me up too much, the Gels don't seem to last as long as Lucozade but are easier to carry with me on my run's , also I find if I use the Lucozade I will get a spike later. Glucose tablets don't cut it, and anything more just slows me down. On the odd marathon I have had to stop for a bowl of Bran Flakes :lol: Plays havoc with the times but I used to set off with my sugars too low, now I pump them up. I'm lucky in that I never get Ketones even when they are really quiet high ,so I can dwindle them down more over the run without the need for constant top up's of glucose which I just hate doing :evil: But I have found a little Gem just of late....Peanut Brittle, it works a treat to stabalise my BS, no spike but just a nice pro-longed level to finish my runs...and tastes nice too , not bulky to put in my run bag and can take a couple ,one for after. I'm sticking with this for now. hope this helps [/QUOTE]
