Gel reviews

When it comes to rating gels, it’s all ‘it depends’. How your body takes it, what it tastes like, how sweet it is… I’m actually judging these on everything but probably how they work. I’m not sure I’ve pushed the runs long enough or hard enough to judge if the gels work. Let’s assume they did.
