Testing Clean Fuel: GoMacro Bars Review and Giveaway

I've been looking for a new source of fuel to take in before my runs. It's been a tricky search with my sensative stomach. So I decided to give "clean fuel" a try, with GoMacro Macrobars. Here's my review AND your chance to WIN a whole box!



Thanks to #RunEatTweetAZ, I had the chance to test these bad boys out. I received a whole box of the "minis". About twice as small as the normal sized bars but perfect for a quick fuel-up before heading out on a run. My box was packed FULL of all the different flavors. There's really a flavor for everyone: (courtesy Zucchini Runner for doing the leg work on the flavor breakdown)

  1. Protein Pleasure – Peanut butter chocolate chip
  2. Sweet Rejuvenation – Cashew Butter
  3. Protein Replenishment – Peanut Butter
  4. Prolonged Power – Banana + Almond Butter
  5. Protein Purity – Sunflower butter + Chocolate
  6. Wholehearted Heaven – Almond Butter + Carob
  7. Balanced Goodness – Granola + Coconut
  8. Sweet Revival – Sesame Butter + Dates
  9. Sunny Uplift – Cherries + Berries
  10. Protein Paradise – Cashew Caramel
  11. Morning Harvest – Apples + Walnuts


Briefly, what's so special about GoMacro? They're a family-run natural food company, whose roots come from organic farming. Macro bars are 100% vegan, USDA certified organic, non-GMO, Gluten-Free, and made from raw ingredients. So when I say this was a clean-fuel option, it's legit as about as clean as it gets!

So what did I think? I was not just pleasantly surprised... I was immediately in love! They tasted delicious and I ended up eating TWO right away. Glutenous I know, but I couldn't help it. I wanted to try ALL the flavors!


I didn't try any DURING a run, but they were the perfect fuel for me before and after. Now, I know I've tried a lot of products (including fuel) that I've enjoyed and I've written positive reviews on. However, THIS was the first product that I immediately bought MORE of the moment I'd finished it!

My favorite flavor was banana + almond butter. So I purchased some full-sized bar from a local store to take with me for my Ragnar Relay. They worked perfect to keep me going between my runs. (Ragnar Race Recap coming soon)

And just yesterday, I purchased a whole new box of just that flavor! Needless to say. I'm in love with GoMacro Macrobars now. And get this, I've got a *40% OFF* code for you on your first order. Just use "BLOGGER" during checkout.

Alright, so here's what you've been waiting on... the GIVEAWAY! #RunEatTweetAZ is giving away an entire box of the minis just like I received! Full of all 11 flavors. Just visit the Facebook page HERE to see how to enter. Be sure to give the #RunEatTweetAZ page AND the GoMacro page a like while you're at it. ;-) Good Luck!


Tell me, have you tried GoMacro before? What flavor is your favorite? IF you haven't, what flavor would you most like to try?
