Run Gum Mint Flavor Caffeinated Energy & Focus Gum, 50mg Caffeine per Piece, Sugar Free with Taurine & B-Vitamins, Fast-Acting Chewing Gum, 24 Pieces (12 Packs)

I love love love this gum, it puts my workouts in to the high gears! I don't eat breakfast so this gum helps with suppresing my appetite as well. It could use some more mint flavor but the taste is still great. Thanks RUN GUM I will continue to purchase this product.

I ordered this for my grandson who runs on a track team. I assume it was satisfactory to him.

I've tried several similar products and this one is my favorite. No upset stomach and it seems to work pretty quickly. The downside is that the flavor of the gum lasts about as long as the Zebra stripe gum of my childhood.

Tastes amazing and the energy boost was fantastic. Definitely a buy again for me. If you don't like coffee this is one of the best ways to get caffine. I have a super boring church history class so I use one of these and it keeps me awake. Only one issue with two pieces of my gum then it just melted in my mouth it wasn't like gum at all.

I think the gum does what it’s intended to as far as energy wise, but I did not like the aftertaste of the mint flavor at all. Im not trying to be dramatic but it almost tastes like a smoker taste...like the smell of cigarette...or even medicinal..It’s weird, I can’t explain it. It’s not overly powerful, it’s a hint of it,..but enough to just turn you off to wanting to continue to chew it. Hope I don’t notice it as much during a run and am able to get through it. So I’m a little disappointed because it’s expensive and not returnable. Would want to see if the fruit flavor is similar and assuming the taste is due to the ingredients I would assume the fruit flavor is going to have the same sort of aftertaste. Surprised how many people aren’t bothered by the taste but hope the effects will outweigh the taste for me when using it during my run training and workouts.

The caffeine worked sure, but as someone who chews gum for their entire runs this product is not at all what it claims to be. Loses all structure and integrity within 5 minutes of chewing and becomes genuinely disgusting. If you need gum to chew during your runs, this product is horrible. If you need just an energy boost before and will spit the gum out in 5 minutes, then i guess it's okay. I will not buy again.

I don’t habitually use caffeine but do use it during races and some key workouts for the performance benefits. Caffeinated gels work ok but seem to negatively impact my gut and ability to take in 80-100g of carbs per hour for multi-hour events. Per some recommendations from other endurance athletes I gave Run Gum a try and so far I’m very impressed. It’s hard to describe but the energy you get from it just feels “better” than other caffeine sources with less of a crash at the end and no issues with my gut. Tried the mint flavor and while it does get bitter after a 5 minutes or so I found it perfectly tolerable. Texture seemed fine to me as well. I wouldn’t chew it for fun but for a tool to help you train and race effectively this is a great product.

I must say it does what it intends too; took two pieces on a day I just was struggling to get moving to get a run in after yoga. After the first bite a wave of just awefulness hits your mouth; these a definitely not for someone who's more about taste over function as they taste awful. But this isn't my first rodeo and I'm all about will it do what I need it to do over the taste and it succeeded. I had a boost of energy and got a 5K in in record time. Problem is I couldn't keep chewing it during the run; not because I can run and chew but the taste is just bad and distracting. I honestly feel I did so well because mentally I wasn't willing to spit it out until I was done. Even with that mind set at mile 2 it had to go; like I said I have and still do take supplements that aren't the best tasting but get the job done. If you're willing to endure the taste this will work. I give it a 2 stars not for function; that's easy a four, but taste. This is not enjoyable at all and other than that quick initial boost not recommended for more than 5-7 minutes of use. And at the price point it's too expensive to give higher than a 2 star rating IMO. Hope this helps and to be fair I really did want to like this; I'm not bashing it to bash it. If they change the formula slightly to improve upon the taste a bit I'd give it another try.

Great effective stimulating chewing gum

Was really looking forward to trying this product. And with it being pricey I was looking forward to a high quality effective product. However, initial taste is ok; very subtle mint flavour. After about 1 minute of chewing the taste becomes awful; like what I imagine chewing on plastic would be. The texture is also very off putting;like rubber. Felt nauseous afterwards. Could only chew it for about 3 mins before the taste became too much and had to spit it out. If I tried to chew this mid race I think there would be a high chance of me being sick. Wouldn't recommend and wouldn't buy again.
