I don't like the way they make me feel, I prefere just eating a light snack, then wait like 15mins then run. They have alot of caffine, an dother things in it for "engery", i'd watch it, that high of caffine, and running to me, just don't settle well, heart wise. But if you drink them alot, your nervious system will adapt to the stimulis(caffine) and it will take more and more to give you that engery "high". I wouldn't, but thats just me.

I usually have one before running esp long distances but most pple I hear have coffee its hard to have something hot bfore I run. I guess my concern was if im taking redbull then Im I burning redbull for energy or using my own fat deposits. I feel fine when I drink one then run but if its negating my workout then Ill stop

I've only seen Lucazade one or twice here in the U.S., but I imagine it doesn't offer much your body can use efficiently.
