What energy gels do you actually use on long runs? (+ quick 5-min survey)
A friend of mine is doing market research on sports nutrition in India — specifically around energy gels, what people actually use during training/races, and whether there's a real demand for a cleaner, honey-based alternative.
No brand pitching, no spam — just genuinely trying to understand what's out there and what's missing for Indian athletes.
The survey takes under 5 mins and covers things like:
• What you use for fuel on long runs (gels, real food, nothing?)
• How happy you are with current options
• Whether "natural ingredients" actually matters to you when buying
• Honest thoughts on honey as a performance fuel
Would mean a lot if you filled it out — every response genuinely helps.

Happy to chat in the comments too — curious what this community actually uses and what frustrates you about current gels.
