Oh my, did I have a terrible experience trying out GU this morning. That stuff is terrible. I gagged and had dry heaves after two attempts to swallow the stuff.
Has anyone out there tried something other than GU to help stay energized during long swims? I am swimming the 8 mile swim across Lake Champlain in two weeks. I'm experimenting with different foods/nutritional supplements that might help me along the way. Any suggestions?
Thank you!

I love GU from the first time I've used it. My favorite is Expresso Luv. I've used it on the bike in Tri's and on the run during marathons. I ripe the top off, bite it and squeeze the GU out using my teeth swallow and chase it with a drink.
I've never tried it swimmming.
