First Time Using Gels on a Half Marathon… Was It Worth It?

Описание: 🏃‍♂️ HALF MARATHON TRAINING RUN | Manchester Marathon Prep

In this video, I’m taking you along for a half marathon training run as part of my Manchester Marathon training plan with Runna — and it’s also my first time ever using gels 👀⚡️

I’ll talk you through:
• How my legs and body feel post-run
• Using energy gels on the run to stay fuelled
• My thoughts during the run, including the hills, views, and tougher sections
• How the run actually felt mentally and physically
• A full post-run debrief, breaking down stats, splits, pace, and overall performance

This run was all about building confidence for marathon training, learning how my body responds to gels, and seeing how I handle longer distances under fatigue.

If you’re training for a marathon, half marathon, or just curious about Runna plans, fueling strategies, or long-run prep, hopefully this gives you a real, honest look at what it’s like.

👇 Let me know in the comments:
• When you started using gels
• What your go-to fuel is
• Or if you’re training for a race right now!
