Run Gum - Performance Energy Sugar-Free Fruit 12 Packet(S) 165687

The product is a great product overall. Would definitely recommend. Feels a little expensive per serving but when compared to energy drinks or pre-workout it is a better value. Not much to say for flavor because there is a slight taste that’s not good initially but it does come through after that initial little bit I prefer the mint because it over powers that first odd taste. As for the gum it has helped with my training for my next half marathon I feel and it is great to avoid the dry mouth that sometimes comes with running. The two pack is great because I can start with one price and if it is a longer run the I can grab the second price for that extra kick in the middle of the run. The packaging is great because I fold it and no sweat gets through to the gum so it stays fresh. Also I like running on an empty stomach is there is nothing I have to put in my stomach like a pre-workout or energy drink.

I really like the texture of this gum. I can chew it long after the flavor is gone. I do find the flavor to die off very quickly. The energy burst is nice but not a huge amount. I find it more to keep me alert. I do think it is expensive for a piece of gum.

There was an after taste that I didn't particularly like, however it did have an energy boost that I did like.

I have been using Run Gum for about 8 years now, off and on. To be honest, I've never noticed much of an energy boost, at least with only one piece of gum. The other negative is the flavor does not last long at all. The positive with the Fruit flavor is it's my favorite flavor by far.

Bad consistency at first but once you get to chewing it it starts to be like normal gum. That's when the initial flavor wears off and then all you can taste is this bitter artificial tasting sweetener. Well get used to that taste because it stays in your mouth for the next couple hours. I'm not sure what sweeteners they use to make this gum but it leaves the worst aftertaste in your mouth. This gum is unchewable complete and total waste of money. I was so hopeful that this would be a quench thirsting gum that also gave you a little boost of energy for morning runs. In actuality it's an awful tasting gum that makes you wish you'd never put it in your mouth.
