You are very welcome.
Gels is an interesting one. I've tried many, I only use gels when in racing. Currently I am using Etixx. It isn't such a thick gu like gel which I find helps the intake. I use both Isotonic Gel and a caffeine gel.
A point to note about the upset stomach, it may not solely be the gel that causes the issue. It could for sure trigger an upset stomach but there can be other contributing factors such as artificial intakes in an every day diet.
Treadmill running: my time spent on a TM varies. It depends what type of training block I am in, what environment is around me, how fatigued I am or how 'fresh' I need to be in the days ahead. Usually 1 x per week when in a heavy training block. This link explains why we use the treadmill - https://www.facebook.com/...hp?v=831112480262179
