My review of the HomeRun energy bar, Active Root’s DIY Gel mix and Unived’s wide range of gels, energy drinks and recovery powders. Scroll down for links to buy and more nutrition advice films from Wild Ginger Running.

If you’ve already tried these and have an opinion, or if you really rate another sports nutrition brand, type it in the comments below and tell us why you like it, so people watching this can make even more of an informed decision.  

And if you don’t use sports nutrition, let me know what rocks your boat, and tell me about any particularly weird things you’ve eaten on the trail or seen other people eating. I think a lady on the Scafell Skyrace in my nutrition film below, with a tube of condensed milk and oxo cubes for the salt was my strangest encounter so far.
