Is it possible to get shot blocks or Gu in bulk? Costco perhaps?

Try these guys : http://www.runningwarehouse.com/catpage-bars.html I've had great experiences buying not only Gu, but shoes from them as well. Prices seem pretty good and free 2 day shipping !

I hope I don't spoil the fun when I mention that gelatin is made from really gross animal parts. agree.gif

Nothing really fun about downing Gu pouches regardless of what they are made of, but they seem to work for me anyway and are easy to slop down during intense activity without interrupting the activity. I guess they taste good enough to be tolerable anyway.

ProBar Bolt is similar to Clif Blocks -- You can order direct http://shop.theprobar.com/PROBAR-Bolt-Variety-Pack-12Pack/p/PRO-VARBOLT&c=ProBar@Bolt Or go to Trader Joe's and buy a one pound bag of dried apricots for $5

Both Gu gels and Clif Shot Bloks are vegan, no gelatin.

If you like Gu then you'll love I was a staunch GU user, but then discovered Hammer products, and us them as my main supplier of energy replacement products. But this is for my cycling regime. When I am out on the trail I uses their gels...but leave the drink powders at home, because of the weight. I find that two EmerganC's drink packets mixed with a litter of water on my lunch break works well. I have always liked the Hammer and GU products, and think they are quite tasty (well the fruit..not the chocolate stuff) its Cliff and PowerBar I can't stand.

I miss my 4.8Lb base weight as a ground dweller...But I sure DON'T MISS the ground.
