As most of you know, I am a believer in GU. It's a great energy gel that gives me that extra bit of energy I need on long runs. I generally use the vanilla or chocolate outrage (which, I think, tastes like brownie batter - YUM). But I've been sampling a lot of other flavors recently and reporting on them in other posts. I gave the mandarin orange a surprising thumbs up - I really didn't expect to like it. The blueberry-pomegranate ultra endurance GU got a thumbs down for flavor (I thought it was a bit too strong, but I'm sure others might like it) but a thumbs up for performance (I felt great during the run). I'll continue to review flavors throughout the next couple weeks.
Alright, I know all this talk about GU has you all itching for a giveaway... so here's your chance to get a sample of lots and lots of different flavors. This will take you through lots of runs! So without further ado, here is the loot you could win:

Yummy GU! I love the Chocolate Outrage!
Already a follower. Would like to try Lemon Sublime Gel or the Strawberry-Watermelon Recovery Brew. New flavor? Hmmm, how about a cola one along the lines of Dr.Pepper? Wait, that would be 23 flavors! Watermelon's not a bad idea either.
I follow your blog!
I can't wait to try mint chocolate! YUM!
I LOVE pineapple! I'd love a pineapple-coconut flavor!
I would have to do either Reese peanut butter cup-ish or a Mint chocolate chip would be good too!
New to the blog and LOVE it .. I ran the Hottest Half too and MAN oh Man that was a tough race!
Also, Following the blog officially now. But about the flavor I would try: Roctane Vanilla Orange!
Never heard of it but sounds more beneficial because of the additional sodium in it!! (DEFINITELY beneficial to a runner in sweaty Fort Worth)!!!
New follower here!
I'd like to try espresso love and I think either chocolate/peanut butter or lemon meringue flavors would be fantastic!
I follow!
Mandarin Orange sounds great!
I'm not a huge soda fan, but soda-flavored GU would be good.

MMM would love to try Chocolate outrage or Vanilla Bean! I could use these for my upcoming 1/2 marathon and now that my long runs needs to really start breaking past the 5/6 mile mark - I could really use these!!
Maybe Espresso Love is better than Chocolate Outrage ;-)
